Hello,
Long time lurker here.
First of all, thank you for the extensions, really appreciated the possibility to work directly in vscode.
I have a couple of situation, however, that are really annoying and that I would like to solve.
While developing in vscode with the extension enabled. It is sufficient to update the CMake presets in order to have the tools installed by the ST extension to make the git repository dirty.
If before committing the files to the repo a pre-commit that formats the files in a proper way then it is amplificated.
The files:
- c_cpp_properties.json in the .vscode folder is always updated with the compileCommands updated if dynamic folders for Debug and Release are used
- .clangd configuration file is updated in the CompilationDatabase field.
In my opinion there are two different types of settings:
- settings that needs to be persinstent, and maybe reusable on different computers by different users
- settings related only to the current run
There should exist a good way for switching branches and change configuration without having to worry about the extension that changes files at his willing.
Is it unclear if I can put under gitignore the content of .settings folder. Anyway I cannot place under gitignore the other two files mentioned above because I am using them for other configurations.
Thank you in advance
