If I am checking in a Pinegrow project to Git, which files should I add, and which files should I ignore?

These are the contents of a Pinegrow project folder, are any of these autogenerated, or should I add everything?

My guess is I should add everything except \_pgbackup

I’m not an expert at Pinegrow nor Git…but I’d suggest leaving out \_pgbackup, assets, and bootstrap - these are all third party components that you probably won’t (shouldn’t?) be editing. So, basically, just the files in the main directory.
