# TEMPLATE CUSTOMIZATION & BEST PRACTICES
# ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
# 1. REVIEW: Examine all patterns before use
# 2. CUSTOMIZE: Adapt to your project's specific structure
# 3. TEST: Use `git check-ignore` to verify patterns work correctly
# 4. SECURE: Always protect sensitive data and credentials
# 5. UPDATE: Review periodically as technology evolves
# For comprehensive coverage, consider combining with:
# - Framework template if applicable (frameworks/*.gitignore)
# - Common security patterns (common/security.gitignore) - CRITICAL for protecting sensitive data
# - Common cache patterns (common/cache.gitignore)
# - Common build patterns (common/build.gitignore)
# - Common logs patterns (common/logs.gitignore)
# - IDE template for your editor (ides/*.gitignore)
# - OS template for your system (os/*.gitignore)
# EXAMPLE COMBINATION FOR Java:
# cat languages/java.gitignore \
# common/security.gitignore \
# common/cache.gitignore \
# common/build.gitignore \
# common/logs.gitignore \
# ides/visual-studio-code.gitignore \
# os/macos.gitignore \
# os/windows.gitignore > .gitignore
