I'm trying to find if there is a list of the files to ignore in source/version control for apache cordova apps built with visual studio version 2015.

There are a lot of files especially under platforms, and I'm not sure if they need to be included or not and if they will be re-generated if I clone my repository elsewhere.

  • At the moment i have got these files in my ignore list: _MyApp/bin/* , MyApp/platforms/* , MyApp/plugins/*_ – Quintonn May 30 '16 at 18:18
  • The platform folders should be build artefacts, see also [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16989933/what-parts-of-cordova-cli-generated-projects-can-be-safely-versioned-in-source-c) – Phonolog May 30 '16 at 19:13

    @Quintonn As far as i know, its safe to ignore only platforms folder. Its better to include plugins folder as some of the plugin updates may need re-testing of the app. – Gandhi May 31 '16 at 03:19
  • Agree. Platforms and plugins are build artefacts that don't need to be in source control. Generally only check in the files that you can modify (so make sure everything inside merges/ res/ www/ and config.xml and taco.json) – Linda Z Jun 09 '16 at 00:24
