Editing clears old output. Output is limited to 1 MiB; excess output is rejected, never truncated.

Curated github/gitignore excerpts, CC0-1.0; not exhaustive templates. React, Vue and Next.js reuse Node excerpts. Ignore rules affect untracked files, not tracked files or leak history. Review in your repository. After download, name the file .gitignore; browsers may remove the leading dot or add .txt.

Inputs stay in page memory without transmission, storage or URL insertion.

How to use this tool

Choose relevant templates, generate and review each credited excerpt before copying into your own .gitignore.

When not to use it

Curated CC0-1.0 excerpts, not exhaustive templates. Ignoring a path does not remove tracked files or erase leaked secrets; review patterns against your repository.
