What this does
Marks the committed generated docs files as
linguist-generatedso GitHub collapses them by default in the Files Changed tab. They stay fully diffable, searchable, and in history. They're just hidden behind a one-click expand so real changes are easier to spot in review.Two entries in a new
.gitattributes:docs/generated/** linguist-generated=true: covers the committed component API JSON today, plus any future generator that commits output underdocs/generated/.docs/public/search-index.json linguist-generated=true: the search index, which lives outsidedocs/generated/.Scope
Display metadata only. No merge-driver or text/eol attributes. The merge driver stays parked until parallel PRs actually start conflicting on these files.
When you'll see it
