      Nerdy question of the day 🤓
      Why are the Autosave files never ignored even though they are in the .gitignore?

      I can't help pressing F5 in the forum...

        @ustk Mine are. I ignore the entire presets folder.

          @d-healey That's what I thought... Although I'm not sure I want to ignore the entire folder 🙄

            Sure you do 😛 git can't version control the contents of binary files so there's not much point in tracking them, unless it's just as a backup, but then you should probably just use a backup system.

              Oh wait wait wait! They are not in the user preset folder but just the preset one I don't care at all! I'm too tired Dave! 🤣

                This is definitely irritating... I ignored the entire Presets folder but the autosave files are still tracked...

                      Oh wait it seems to work! I think it is necessary to wait for new autosaves to happen before seeing them ignored...

                        Mine looks like this, don't know if the extra slash makes a difference.

                          @d-healey I don't know about the extra slash, I took the example online when you need to ignore an entire folder so I did the same...

                            @d-healey They are reappearing! And I also tried without the extra slash..
