Make _create_absolute_fileurl() function more resilient

[max-pfeiffer]

I also updated the .gitignore for my Pycharm IDE and virtual environment.

fixes #66

Thank you for the fix, Max. I reverted the .gitignore changes, which at the very least belong in their own commit and pull request, but in my opinion are better placed on your own workstation inside ~/.gitignore.

That was actually a very nice contribution experience. Your contribution guide is quite good and enabled me to quickly do that. Thanks a lot for the review and creating a new release right away.

But what you wrote because of .gitignore is not fully plausible to me. The current file already includes exemptions for VSCode files. So we already have a developer specific configuration there. You are discriminating software engineers who live a Microsoft free life here. 😄

Also it's quite common practice to exclude the paths for the most common environment setups there, i.e. https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/main/Python.gitignore

So what about making the setup a bit more contributor friendly with #75 ?

I will keep working this project a bit more, because I see a couple more issues which need to get fixed. Also robots.txt is lacking the sitemap.

Thanks for the kind words about the contribution guide and overall experience.

I am aware that some people repeatedly duplicate the same configuration in every repository's .gitignore, but my personal opinion is that those kinds of general excludes are better suited inside individual developers' ~/.gitignore files, with the repository .gitignore containing primarily repository-specific directives.

My friend Hynek, a well-known Python developer whose opinions I respect, also appears to share my minimalist perspective on this topic: https://github.com/hynek/stamina/blob/main/.gitignore

That said, I merged your follow-up PR given the other existing entries in this particular repository.

Thanks for elaborating on this a bit more. I will follow up on this as this an approach I am not familiar with.

Maybe it's an idea to add some information about this to your contribution guide.

I just finished the sitemap feature for robots.txt and will send you another MR shortly.
