Add ignore to ".vsconfig" file for unity

[Purpaca]

Add ignore to ".vsconfig" file​​

Reasons for making this change The .vsconfigfile is ​​auto-generated​​ by Visual Studio to declare project-specific development environment dependencies (e.g., workloads, SDKs, extensions). Including it in version control causes several issues:

​​Toolchain pollution​​: It enforces ​​rigid IDE configurations​​ that may conflict with collaborators using alternative tools (e.g., VS Code, Rider, or macOS editors).

​​Redundancy​​: Unity/C# projects already manage core dependencies via ProjectSettings/and *.csprojfiles, making .vsconfignon-essential for builds or runtime.

​​Accidental environment sync​​: Tracking this file risks forcing unnecessary component installations (e.g., Android/iOS workloads) for contributors who don’t need them.

Ignoring .vsconfigaligns with Git’s best practices to exclude ​​locally generated IDE artifacts​​ (similar to .vscode/or .idea/).

Links to documentation supporting these rule changes • ​​GitHub’s official guidance​​ on ignoring environment-specific files:

Ignoring Files - GitHub Docs.

• ​​Visual Studio documentation​​ stating .vsconfigis a user-specific configuration:

Customize Visual Studio workloads via .vsconfig.

• ​​Unity.gitignore precedent​​: Existing templates (e.g., GitHub/Unity.gitignore) ignore analogous IDE artifacts like *.userprefsand ProjectSettings/EditorBuildSettings.asset.

If this is a new template Not applicable. This change modifies the existing Unity.gitignoretemplate.

Merge and Approval Steps • Confirm that you've read the contribution guidelinesand ensured your PR aligns. • Ensure CI is passing. • Get a review and Approval from one of the maintainers. Implementation Example The added rule in Unity.gitignore:

Visual Studio

.vsconfig # Environment configuration (workloads, SDKs) This ensures .vsconfigis ignored universally across Unity projects using Visual Studio, reducing noise in commits and preventing toolchain conflicts.
