Question

What files should be in my .gitignore for an Android Studio project?

I\'ve seen several examples that all include .iml but IntelliJ docs sa

As of Android Studio 0.8.4 .gitignore file is generated automatically when starting new project. By default it contains:

.gradle
/local.properties
/.idea/workspace.xml
/.idea/libraries
.DS_Store
build/
/captures

I agree with this statement, however I modify this file to change /build to build/ (This will include /build and /app/build) So I don't end up with all the files in app/build in my repository.

Note also that if you import a project from Eclipse, the .gitignore won't be copied, or "automagically" created for you.
