Version Control – git ignore vendor

I’m following up on two previous topics that, in my opinion, do not offer the complete information I’m after in regards to what is possible to ignore from versioning with Git:

• https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/wordfence-git-gitignore/
• https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/wordfence-git-what-to-add-to-gitignore/

Basically, I’d like to Git ignore all /vendor/ directories on my WP website; so I’m thinking of adding **/vendor/ to .gitignore. I can see that currently Wordfence has some dependencies in a /wp-content/plugins/wordfence/crypto/vendor/ directory. Would it be safe to ignore it?

For context, I’m running my website in a Docker container and I’m also wondering if ignoring all /vendor/ would cause any issues should I rebuild the container from scratch?

Thanks in advance.

Circular reference Jetpack question:

Would it be safe to exclude these directories from tracking with Git: **/vendor/, **/assets/dist/, **/node_modules/?
