  <p>I started using WebStorm for web development and am not sure what to add and what to exclude from our Git repository. Clearly some files inside the <code>.idea</code> folder are meant to be version controlled like the external library settings (<code>jsLibraryMappings.xml</code>) but others will probably change very often and are developer-specific (e.g., <code>workspace.xml</code>).</p>
  
  <p>What is the recommended <code>.gitignore</code> pattern for WebStorm / IntelliJ IDEA?</p>
  
  <p>P.S. There are already questions about this but usually focus only on whether to include the whole <code>.idea</code> folder or whether to fully exclude it. I think some of the files inside the <code>.idea</code> folder should be version controlled while others shouldn't and I'm trying to find out which ones.</p>
