Team: Owner
Branch: PR_26179_OWNER_012-gitignore-env-simplification
Scope: .gitignore only plus required reports and outcome ZIP. No runtime code or production pages changed.

Summary

• Replaced the two-line environment ignore rule with a single .env* rule.
• Preserved exceptions for .env.example, .env.sample, and .env.template.

Changed Files

Validation Matrix

Path	Result	Status
.env	ignored	PASS
.env.dev	ignored	PASS
.env.ist	ignored	PASS
.env.uat	ignored	PASS
.env.prd	ignored	PASS
.env.local	ignored	PASS
.env.example	tracked and not ignored	PASS
.env.sample	not ignored by exception; file not present/tracked in repo	PASS_WITH_SCOPE_NOTE
.env.template	not ignored by exception; file not present/tracked in repo	PASS_WITH_SCOPE_NOTE

Scope note: .env.sample and .env.template are not currently tracked files in this repository, so the validation confirms the requested exception behavior without adding files outside the .gitignore-only scope.

Validation

• git diff --check: PASS.
• Environment ignore matrix: PASS with scope note for absent sample/template files.

Blockers

None.

Keep .envrc files from being ignored

With this broader pattern, any dotfile beginning with .env is ignored; I checked git check-ignore --no-index .envrc and it reports .gitignore:52:.env*, so a developer adding a direnv .envrc or another non-dotenv config with that prefix would not see or commit it unless forced. The previous rules only covered .env and .env.*, so either keep the dot-delimited pattern or explicitly unignore .envrc if it should remain trackable.
