.ignore file nodejs

Step 1: Create a new file in the root directory of your Node.js project. Step 2: Save the file with the name ".gitignore" (without the quotes). Step 3: Open the ".gitignore" file in a text editor. Step 4: Add specific files or directories that you want to ignore in the version control system, such as "node_modules/" to ignore the entire "node_modules" directory. Step 5: Save the ".gitignore" file. Step 6: Commit the changes to the repository.
