I opened my project folder in Visual Studio Code (same editor as Andrew) and he already has a .gitignore file and I do not. Why does he have this already and do we need to make one as well? (This is my first time going through this course, so I don't know if he talks about it in a later video yet)

29,749 PointsI know how to add gitignore and I already have git, I just wonder why his project already has a .gitignore file? Is there a way to have it automatically, or did he just add it without actually showing it in this course?
