Add to the .gitignore file

This function creates a .gitignore file at the root of the project based on a template (specific to R). If a .gitignore is already present, files to be untracked by git are just added to this file.

open

A logical value. If TRUE the .gitignore file is opened in the editor. Default is FALSE.
