We've historically been pushing back against adding artifacts for every possible IDE to the gitignore, as it's impossible to maintain, and they can be locally ignored just as easily, either locally or globally (https://help.github.com/articles/ignoring-files/). But if this is part of our own instructions, fair enough. |

I'm not aware of alternative editors for QT |

FYI (not meant as argument against this PR): There's the stand-alone Qt Designer, command |
There was a problem hiding this comment.

The .gitignorefile is probably not really sacred,... but indeed we should avoid to add files/patterns from any possible IDE. But Qt creator seems somehow be unique for working on the GUI (AFAIK no other interactive editor for .ui files are available)

That's not true, see the post above! |
