# Ignore the Go module cache and build cache generated locally
# These are typically rebuilt or downloaded within the Docker container
# unless using specific BuildKit cache mounts.
go.sum          # go.sum is needed to verify dependencies during go mod download
go.mod          # go.mod is needed to determine dependencies
# However, if you copy go.mod/go.sum separately before copying the rest of the code
# in your Dockerfile for caching purposes, you might ignore them in a later COPY step,
# but they must be in the build context initially for the early COPY.
# For simplicity in a basic .dockerignore, they are often NOT ignored here.

# Ignore version control directories and files

# Optional: Ignore documentation or example directories not needed for the final build

# Optional: Ignore the Dockerfile itself and .dockerignore
# They are sent to the daemon for the build process regardless,
# this just prevents them being accidentally copied into the image.
