go-gitignore

Changes from Original

This is a fork of the original sabhiram/go-gitignore repository with the following updates:

Why this fork? The original repository is no longer actively maintained. The original author used Git tag 1.0.2 instead of v1.0.2 (required by Go module rules). These updates ensure compatibility with modern Go versions, fix deprecation warnings, and maintain the project's usability for current Go developers.

Module & Dependencies

• Module name: Changed to github.com/argcv/go-gitignore
• Go version: Upgraded to 1.23
• Testify: Upgraded to v1.10.0

Code Modernization

• Replaced deprecated ioutil functions with os equivalents:
  • ioutil.ReadFile → os.ReadFile
  • ioutil.WriteFile → os.WriteFile
• Fixed code formatting in ignore.go comments
• Reorganized imports in test files

Repository Updates

• Updated go.mod and go.sum with new dependencies
• Added /vendor/ directory to .gitignore to exclude vendored dependencies
• Removed version_gen.go file as it's no longer needed
