Developers run all sorts of different tools within Git repositories, any of which can leave their own special trashfiles all over the place. We can't every hope to catalog them all, so better to recommend developers simply configure a global core.excludesfile to filter the irrelevant files which tend to get created by their personal choice of tools. To this end, remove the long-standing sections for "Mr Developer" and "Editors" since their mere existence here sends the signal that we welcome (and have time to review) additions for any old tool someone ever might happen to try. Also add a comment block explaining this, for clarity. We can, and should of course, continue to list files created by the tools recommended by our workflow (test frameworks called from tox, documentation and packaging builds, et cetera). This change is a port of I1b41efac219fca44e2548fc36633724d0ecfc0cb from the openstack-dev/oslo-cookiecutter repository. Change-Id: I58fac7a90ae611217a978a6a0190abb8efca44e2 |

oslo.reports
When things go wrong in (production) deployments of OpenStack collecting debug data is a key first step in the process of triaging & ultimately resolving the problem. Projects like Nova has extensively used logging capabilities which produce a vast amount of data. This does not, however, enable an admin to obtain an accurate view on the current live state of the system. For example, what threads are running, what config parameters are in effect, and more.
The project oslo.reports hosts a general purpose error report generation framework, known as the "guru meditation report" (cf http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guru_Meditation) to address the issues described above.
Models: These classes define structured data for a variety of interesting pieces of state. For example, stack traces, threads, config parameters, package version info, etc. They are capable of being serialized to XML / JSON or a plain text representation
Generators: These classes are used to populate the model classes with the current runtime state of the system
Views: views serialize models into say JSON, text or xml. There is also a predefined view that utilizes Jinja templating system.
There will be a number of standard models / generators available for all OpenStack services
StackTraceModel: a base class for any model which includes a stack trace ThreadModel: a class for information about a thread ExceptionModel: a class for information about a caught exception ConfigModel: a class for information about configuration file settings PackageModel: a class for information about vendor/product/version/package information
Each OpenStack project will have the ability to register further generator classes to provide custom project specific data.
