Replace .gitkeep with .gitignore in tmp directory#289
Merged
Conversation
The MCP server now auto-creates a .gitignore in .deepwork/tmp/ during startup (serve command), ensuring temporary files never get committed in user repos. Replaces the old .gitkeep approach with a self-maintaining .gitignore that ignores everything except itself. https://claude.ai/code/session_01WMxTN6a4LLkrjc1nGojNeG
