example SugarCRM/SuiteCRM .gitignore file for tracking the CRM as a whole application (vs. developing code as a Sugar plugin)

.gitignore

# assumes a top-level dir. structure like to:
# /.
# /.git/ (git is up here so all of the below are tracked)
# /.gitignore (this file)
# /crm/ (holds the Sugar/Suite application files)
# /db/ (holds database backups, or at least fields_meta_data and config and similar)
# /scripts/ (holds helper scripts for automated backups of database, quick repair, etc.)

# Ignore cache, but make sure it exists
crm/cache/*
!crm/cache/index.html

# Ignore derived files and junk from the custom directory
crm/custom/application/Ext
crm/custom/backup
crm/custom/history
crm/custom/modules/*/Ext
crm/custom/modules/*/workflow
crm/custom/modulebuilder
crm/custom/workflow
crm/custom/working

# Ignore logs
/crm/sugarcrm*log
/crm/install*log
/crm/shadow_upgrade.log

# Ignore uploaded files, except the placeholder and modules installed from Module Loader
crm/upload/*
!crm/upload/index.html
!crm/upload/upgrades/
crm/upload/upgrades/*
!crm/upload/upgrades/module

# avoid locally created .vagrant dir (but we will track the Vagrantfile)
.vagrant
