Version control and UnityVS.VersionSpecific.dll

Unity Engine
1

I’ve noticed that I keep getting .../Assets/UnityVS/Editor/UnityVS.VersionSpecific.dll being updated to my git repo.

Does anyone know if this is a file that should be version managed (I expect not) - is it safe to add this to my .gitignore?

It certainly feels wrong that this file is even in the Assets folder - I’d not exactly a game asset.

That file is safe to ignore in the repo; It’s a file that is generated by UnityVS automatically. In my case, I’m set up to ignore the entire UnityVS folder, as we have a mix of Mac and Windows users here, and UnityVS is Windows-only. It’s just an editor plugin, so whether it’s there or not won’t impact your game at all.
