You may notice some gitignore.tf files in certain directories. .tf files that contain the word "gitignore" are ignored by git in the .gitignore file.

If you have local Terraform configuration that you want ignored (like Terraform backend configuration), create a new file in the directory (separate from gitignore.tf) that contains the word "gitignore" (e.g. backend.gitignore.tf) and it won't be picked up as a change.
