At the very least, all contributors must have a Contributor License Agreement.

When starting a new repository:

1) Please copy "gitignore_template" to ".gitignore" (the leading "." is important) at the root level of your repository. [Git ignore documentation](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore). Then execute:

git add .gitignore; git commit -m"gitignore"

in your shell.

2) Please only put "secrets" (passwords, API keys and such) in a file named "secrets.txt" at the root level of your repository AFTER you have created the gitignore file. This will prevent you from publishing DevProgress passwords to the entire world.
