I'm attempting to configure my .gitignore
file to exclude the node_modules
directory from my Git repository, but I'm uncertain about the correct syntax to achieve this. I've come across three different options and am unsure which, if any, is the correct approach:
/node_modules
.node_modules
.node_modules/
Could someone clarify which of these options correctly excludes the node_modules
directory, or is there another way to achieve this in .gitignore
? I'm looking for a method to ensure that node_modules
is not tracked by Git to avoid unnecessary files in my repository.
I appreciate any guidance or insights you can provide on this matter.
use node_modules or /node_modules both should work also try to look at the node.gitignore, it will give you an idea on what to ignore in your project
