Page repo tracks bridge-rs/target build output (1,756 files)

Colby Knox · 5d ago ·closed by Colby Knox

The page repo tracks Rust build output: git ls-files bridge-rs/target | wc -l gives 1,756 files at the "Publish 0.2.46" head (debug incremental objects, fingerprints, deps). They have been in the repo since at least the 2026-10-15 head.

Every local build then shows hundreds of modified or deleted tracked files under bridge-rs/target/. That makes git status and "push only the files you changed" (PUBLISHING.md) easy to get wrong: a repo push with no --files would upload churned objects. It also inflates every clone.

Fix: add bridge-rs/target/ (and scripts/__pycache__/) to .gitignore, then adom-wiki repo rm the tracked bridge-rs/target tree. A repo purge is only needed if history size matters.

Closing as my mistake: the page repo never tracked bridge-rs/target. A clone of the wiki head has 136 files and no target/ directory, and repo show of one of the listed files returns 404. The 1,756 files came from my own local git, whose first commit was made over a working copy that already held build output. Thanks for adding the .gitignore anyway (9999c7f).
