Add Global/SlickEdit.gitignore file
This commit adds a global ignore file for SlickEdit, a commercial editor.
SlickEdit will create the following files when the user sets up a workspace:
*.vpw Workspace file. Contains a list of project files associated with
the workspace.
*.vpj Project file. Contains the project’s settings, including the list
of source files.
*.vpwhist Workspace history file for Windows. Contains user session
information (list of open files, debugger breakpoints, etc.)
*.vpwhistu Workspace history file for UNIX/Linux/MacOSX. (Same as above.)
*.vtg Workspace tag file. Contains a database of source code symbols.
It is assumed that GitHub users will generally not want to store their
workspace and project files in a repository, so those files are ignored
globally. However, those files do not contain user-specific data so they
could be stored in a repository and shared among developers if desired for
a particular project. This can be done by adding rules like ’!*.vpw’ and
‘!*.vpj’ to the project’s .gitignore file.
The workspace history and tag files contain user-specific data, so they
should not be stored in a repository.
For more information, download the PDF user guide from:
http://www.slickedit.com/products/slickedit/product-documentation
Note: The user guide is 1400 pages long and over 13MB in size.
Searching for ‘vpwhist’ will lead to the section that discusses storing
these files in a repository.
