Carry the shared secrets baseline in .gitignore Only MNW ignored *.pem/*.key/*.p8/*.p12/*.pfx, and spaghetti, buckets_of_money and most libraries had no .env rule at all, so the guardrail depended on which repo a secret happened to land in. Suffix matching rather than *.env keeps committed environment files that hold no secrets visible, and .env.example is negated back in.
