When setting up my environment, I tend to use uv for its speed and simplicity. uv is also being used by all-in-one system package managers like pixi, which is backed by conda-forge. Therefore, I think adding uv.lock to .gitignore would be helpful to me and other.

    I think uv.lock could still go into git for "command" and maybe "notebook" projects, but it should be added to .gitignore for "library". See "purpose" question:

    python-project-template/copier.yml

    Lines 10 to 19 in 81da275

    custom_install:
    help: What is the purpose of this project? We will tailor the questions to suit the project, or you can do a fully customized installation.
    type: str
    default: custom
    choices:
    python library: library
    command line application: command
    collection of notebooks: notebook
    retrofitting existing project: retrofit
    custom: custom

    I agree, library seems to be the logical choice to intriduce a default of having uv.lock in the gitignore
