What JSON Files should be included in GIT and what JSON Files Should be ignored

[Scook-BrandSafway]

Hey Scott. This is a really good add on and wanted to say nice job!
I am trying to get everything set up correctly.
I have tried to go through the WIKI and see what JSON files should be checked into the repository and what files should be exclude. I am able to export my changes fine. My issue comes when I try to build from source.

I Seen in the documentation that vcs-index should be ignored and not included in the git repository .
Given the following list of JSON Files can you tell me which should be included in the git.

JSON File Include / Exclude
db-connection.JSON Include
dbs-properties.JSON Include
documents.json Include ?
nav-pane-groups.JSON Include ?
proj-properties.json exclude ?
vbe-project.JSON exclude?
vbe-refernces.JSON exclude?
vcs-index.json exclude as per the WIKI
vcs-options.json Exclude ?

Thanks for your help and once again great job on this tool!!

I am glad to hear that you are enjoying it! I would recommend reviewing the .gitignore.default file in this project. (It will be automatically added to any git repository that doesn't already have one when exporting for the first time.) This will show you what I recommend excluding from the repository.

But the short answer is that you only need to exclude vcs-index.json. Everything else is part of the actual source files, and will be needed to build the project from source.

Thank you so much Adam.
