Introduction to Anaconda
Anaconda is a highly popular package manager for python among data scientists. It is an alternative to virtualenv, and is highly sophisticated. Almost across the entire internet, it is considered a bad practice to include Virtual Environment files in GitHub commits. Typically Anaconda users would need to create their own .gitignore files if they were to commit to GitHub. Thus, I am recommending a Pull Request to add support to .gitignore for Anaconda.
I have taken this .gitignore file from the anaconda-project repository.
