The repository's .gitignore had only 3 basic patterns, allowing build artifacts to pollute the working tree.
Patterns Added
Build systems: CMakeCache.txt, CMakeFiles/, generated .sln/.vcxproj in Build/, .vs/, Makefile.Debug/Release, moc_.cpp, qrc_.cpp, ui_*.h, Conan artifacts
Compiled artifacts: *.o, *.obj, *.so, *.dll, *.lib, *.exe, *.pdb, *.ilk, **/obj/
Development tools: pycache/, .vscode/, .idea/, .DS_Store, Thumbs.db
Scoping to Avoid False Positives
Build/**/*.slnnot*.sln(preserves 3rdParty sources)/Debug/,/Release/with leading/(preserves 3rdParty//Debug_Qt5_/ prebuilt libs)Makefile.Debug,Makefile.ReleasenotMakefile*(preserves 3rdParty sources)*.cmake.in,dist/patterns (preserves 3rdParty templates and node_modules)Result: 119 new patterns, all build artifacts ignored, all source files preserved.
