Summary of Changes

Hello @keemsisi, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly updates the .gitignore file to improve its structure and comprehensiveness. The changes aim to streamline version control by clearly categorizing ignored files and adding more robust patterns to prevent common development-related artifacts from being committed, ultimately leading to a cleaner and more manageable repository.

Highlights

• Improved Organization: The .gitignore file has been refactored and organized into distinct sections, such as Python, Virtual environments, Testing, IDE, OS, Logs, Data files, and Project specific, to enhance readability and maintainability.
• Expanded Ignore Rules: New ignore patterns have been added to cover a wider range of common development artifacts, including additional Python build outputs, virtual environment directories, testing caches and reports, IDE configuration folders, OS-specific files, and log files.
• Enhanced Clarity: Existing ignore rules have been reordered and placed under their respective new categories, making it clearer why certain files or directories are being ignored.

Code Review

This pull request does a great job of organizing the .gitignore file into logical sections, which significantly improves its readability. I have a few suggestions to further improve it. There is a critical issue with ignoring the src/ directory, which would prevent the project's source code from being versioned. Additionally, the global rule for *.csv files is risky and should be more specific. Finally, there is a minor correction for an invalid pattern. Addressing these points will make the .gitignore file more robust and correct.
