Hi,

I’m new in UE and I’m trying to set up git for my project. I do this using UE interface and everything is okay but one thing confuses me: I see many of CookerOpenOrder.log files for commit. Should I add them to gitignore? Thanks

PS: UE generated me these ignores:

Binaries
DerivedDataCache
Intermediate
Saved
.vscode
.vs
*.VC.db
*.opensdf
*.opendb
*.sdf
*.sln
*.suo
*.xcodeproj
*.xcworkspace

This is my concern as well.
The same goes for EditorOpenOrder.log.

These logs record the order in which assets are loaded, which Unreal uses to:

  1. Optimize future load times by preloading assets in the same order.
  2. Improve cook efficiency on the same machine.

They don’t help team development and change too frequently, so YES, added them to gitignore.
