.gitignore file

The .gitignore file tells Git which files to ignore when committing your project to the GitHub repository. gitignore is located in the root directory of your repo. You can have multiple .gitignore files as well in one folder

If your project has multiple projects internally and you have to ignore node_mofules of all the projects then you have 2 options.

  1. You can have separate .gitignore folder in every project
  2. You can have only one .gitignore file in the root folder of your project and add node_module or node_module/ into it.
