Hm?  Visual Studio seems like quite a specific tool from here.

I did some googling around the question of project .gitignore
files ignoring .vs/, and was amused to come across this:

https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/main/VisualStudio.gitignore


This is funny Tom. Adding an entry for each type of temp file in .gitignore is a childish thing, obviously.  

which seems like a mighty fine example of where we *don't*
want to go.

I agree we don't want to go in this direction.
