FROM mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/javascript-node:dev-24-bookworm@sha256:c39e4aaf0c7c4da594f845aeb98d37510343bff178b320a6f7e9e2e95ca7957e# Customizing how changed files appear on GitHub
To keep certain files from displaying in diffs by default, or counting toward the repository language, you can mark them with the linguist-generated attribute in a .gitattributes file.
Use a .gitattributes file to mark files that match a given "pattern" with the specified attributes. A .gitattributes file uses the same rules for matching as .gitignore files. For more information, see PATTERN FORMAT in the Git documentation.
-
Unless the .gitattributes file already exists, create a .gitattributes file in the root of the repository.
-
Use the linguist-generated attribute to mark or unmark paths that you would like to be ignored for the repository's language statistics and hidden by default in diffs.
For example, to mark search/index.json as a generated file, add this line to .gitattributes:
search/index.json linguist-generated
To unmark a file that would generally be considered generated, add this line to .gitattributes:
bootstrap.min.css -linguist-generated
