#### Ignore file

A special file used in many **Version Control** Systems which specifies files to be excluded from **version control**. In Unity projects, several files can be excluded from **version control**. Using an Ignore File is the best way to achieve this. See [Using external version control systems with Unity](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ExternalVersionControlSystemSupport.html).
