title: Should I ignore the .idea folder when using PyCharm with Git?
body: <p>I read about Git integration in PyCharm, and created a Git repository from PyCharm. I did this in PyCharm because I was hoping PyCharm would know whether the <code>.idea</code> folder should be ignored, and if that's the case, it would automatically create a <code>.gitignore</code> file with the line <code>.idea/</code> in it. </p>
  
  <p>But it didn't, so I assumed that I shouldn't ignore the <code>.idea</code> foler. However, I did a quick search and found someone's example <code>.gitignore</code> file, <a href="https://gist.github.com/yasushisakai/4584653" rel="noreferrer">here</a>, which clearly ignores the <code>.idea</code> folder.</p>
  
  <p>So, my question is, should the <code>.idea</code> folder be ignored or not?</p>
