Third Party Meta Files

Post by boz »

For whatever reason, no matter what I do, these meta files are always up for commit, although I don't believe I am using them in any way. Should I put in a gitignore for them?

Your .gitignore file (or equivalent) is configured to exclude .unitypackage files. But it sees the corresponding .meta files, which only make sense when they're paired with their original .unitypackage files. There are a few ways to resolve this:

1. Delete the .unitypackage files (i.e., the Third Party Support folders0.

2. Remove *.unitypackage from your .gitignore file.

3. Or add the entire Third Party Support folders to your .gitignore file.

This helped a lot, thank you!

Even just knowing you can get rid of some of those folders is a lot of worry off.
