# ============================================================================
# Exclude repository metadata from `git archive` outputs.
# ============================================================================
#
# Why this file exists
# --------------------
# GitHub's auto-generated "Source code (zip/tar.gz)" assets on the Release
# page are produced by `git archive` and respect these rules. Without
# this file, those archives contained 27 files of repo metadata that
# were useless to skill consumers (.github/, .agents/, README, LICENSE,
# CHANGELOG, CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, .gitignore). This file ensures
# the GitHub Release download matches the curated `linux-kernel-crash-
# debug.skill` artifact produced by release.yml.
#
# Why these paths are NOT in the skill (but ARE in the repo)
# ----------------------------------------------------------
# These paths remain in the repository for the maintainer / contributors:
#
#   - README.md / README_CN.md     GitHub project landing pages
#   - CHANGELOG.md                 version history (humans)
#   - CONTRIBUTING.md              contribution guidelines (humans)
#   - LICENSE                      GitHub repo metadata
#   - CLAUDE.md                    guidance for Claude Code in this repo
#   - .github/                     GitHub platform configuration
#   - .agents/rules/               Claude Code rules for maintainers
#                                  (NOT for skill consumers - they install
#                                  to a separate directory and never see
#                                  these rules)
#
# Skill consumers get only: SKILL.md, SKILL_CN.md, scripts/, references/.
# SKILL.md's "See CONTRIBUTING.md" link points to the GitHub URL
# (https://github.com/...), not a relative path, so excluding the local
# file does not break that reference.
#
# Maintenance
# -----------
# If you add a new file that should stay in the repo but NOT in the
# published skill, add an `export-ignore` line below. release.yml has a
# `Verify Clean Source Archive` step that fails the build if any of the
# paths below accidentally leak into the archive.
