Hello, i have site-packages and py_cache files, should i ignore them on my gitignore, besides poluting my git status i feel like it is not necessary files, they should only remain on the user's side. What do you guys think ?

to be more precise they are /py_cache files and venv/lib/python/site-packages/ but i notice that you ignore the venv folder , we use a common venv in my team to not flood our machines and it works fine

What do you mean by common venv? In general, you should ignore your environment and only keep a requirements.txt file in tracking. I'll explicitly state how you can create a requirements file. 1. Activate your environment 2. pip freeze > requirements.txt In your gitignore just add <name of environment>/ And now add this to tracking 3. git add requirements.txt .gitignore 4. git commit -m 'adding requirements' 5. git push origin master Now anyone who pulls the repo can (optionally) create their own environment and install the requirements using pip install -r requirements.txt Hope this helps!

I mean the venv is on the repo when you clone it. I am gonna remove it like suggested, but i would like to make a script to create the venv( i mean the activate/deactivate/... Binaries and so on)

I do it all the time. I mostly use windows. Here's my bat file that does some stuff for me: ``` @echo off py -m venv env type nul > env.bat echo cd env\Scripts >> env.bat echo call activate.bat >> env.bat echo cd ..\.. >> env.bat call env.bat ``` I have added the location of this bat file in my Environment variables. Then I call it in whichever folder I want to create a new environment.
