Add project.css and project.min.css to .gitignore when js_task_runner == ' Gulp'. These files are generated automatically in this configuration and, as such, mess up git commit periodically.
Description
cookiecutter-django's default behavior when selecting Gulp as JS Task Runner will result in project.css and project.min.css to be regenerated automatically and periodically.
These auto-generated files should not be part of the repo, as they will mess up version control development activities.
Checklist:
Rationale
According to the docs, selecting Gulp as the JS Task Runner will cause the installation to recompile the SASS project.scss file into project.css (and presumably also project.min.css).
The project.css and project.min.css will show up as changed periodically and mess up development by forcing the user to discard in development or unnecessarily committed to the project repo.
