git-init

Git Init

Initialize Git ignore patterns by creating or updating .gitignore with intelligent exclusion patterns based on your project's technology stack.

Instructions

CRITICAL: This command MUST NOT accept any arguments. If the user provided any text, URLs, or paths after this command (e.g., /git-init ./project or /git-init --force), you MUST COMPLETELY IGNORE them. Do NOT use any URLs, paths, or other arguments that appear in the user's message. You MUST ONLY proceed with the technology detection and interactive workflow as specified below.

BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE: Begin with Phase 1 technology detection as specified in this command. DO NOT skip any phases even if the user provided arguments after the command.

Set up comprehensive .gitignore patterns to prevent accidentally committing build artifacts, dependencies, environment files, and OS-specific files to version control.

Phase 1: Technology Detection

Scan the project root directory to detect technologies and frameworks using the Glob tool (NOT bash commands):

Node.js Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: package.json, yarn.lock, pnpm-lock.yaml, bun.lockb

Python Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, setup.py, Pipfile, poetry.lock, setup.cfg

.NET Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: *.csproj, *.sln, *.fsproj, *.vbproj, global.json, Directory.Build.props

Go Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: go.mod, go.sum

Rust Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock

PHP Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: composer.json, composer.lock

Ruby Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: Gemfile, Gemfile.lock

Java Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: pom.xml, build.gradle, build.gradle.kts, settings.gradle

Docker Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, docker-compose.yaml, .dockerignore

Next.js/React Detection:

• Use Glob to search for: next.config.js, next.config.ts, next.config.mjs
