We are creating a series of YouTube videos under the “edu-“ label to guide users through the migration from ArcoLinux to Arch Linux. These tutorials aim to make the transition process smoother by explaining each step clearly and providing practical examples. Whether you’re switching to gain more control or to learn vanilla Arch, our edu- videos are here to support your journey.

ArcoLinux has stopped

Teaching never stops—because learning is a lifelong journey for all of us.

4 Using .gitignore to make sure that the work and out folder will never be pushed to the github and improving the build script

After creating article 3 I realised there is a more suitable solution for not getting the work and out directory on the github.

We need to tell git to ignore the work and out directory.

We create a file .gitignore and type in “work” and “out”. Both directories will now be ignored whenever we push the github online.

We also improved our build script.

We added a line to cleanup our build folder before we start building otherwise the build script will not work.
