#255 - chore(GeoServer): Remove Unnecessary GeoServer Files

[PFratt]

Summary

Modified the .gitignore to ignore generated files

Changes Made

• Ignored .tif files
• Ignored .mbtiles files
• Ignored asset layers created in GeoServer

Testing Instructions

1. Build and run the app
2. Load a dataset
3. Verify that there is not an excessive amount of files being tracked

Additional Notes

• There are still more files that could be ignored or untracked, but they have a smaller impact than these changes.

This is a draft pull request capturing work in progress during Release 3. It is being documented here for transparency and potential future continuation.

As part of the capstone handoff, we are unassigning ourselves from this pull request.

Additional information for CRIM:

Ignore the timestamp layers which are generated:

apps/geoserver_data/workspaces/Default/wildfire_timestamp*

Ignore the item asset layers other than the layer that is used for the collection:

apps/geoserver_data/gwc-layers/*.xml
!LayerInfoImpl-72972593_1948a67d39b_-7ffb.xml

Ignore the asset files which are downloaded:

*.tif

Ignore the offline map which is downloaded:

*.mbtiles

There are more GeoServer files which can be ignored, but some of them carry configurations that you might want to share between all versions of the application.
