Gitignore file for release

Hi
today I had to add some code to a php file in order to get suiteCRM 7.11.22 and PHP 7.4 to work. This change was suggested here:

github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM

Declaring object within StudioClass to remove Strict Warnings

salesagility:hotfix ← samus-aran:samus-aran-patch-2

https://community.suitecrm.com/t/creating-default-object-from-empty-value-usin…g-php-7-4-22/81710 When using PHP 7.4 + it appears that when PHP WARNINGS are enabled users are unable to created fields in Module Builder / Studio. **_Creating default object from empty value in /var/www/suitecrm/modules/ModuleBuilder/views/view.modulefields.php on line 109_** https://community.suitecrm.com/uploads/default/optimized/2X/0/05bd70091fc64f6b7e5ef52286a67d64ab587abd_2_690x261.png This is due to line: https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/blob/master/modules/ModuleBuilder/views/view.modulefields.php#L109 It looks like this was resolved in view.modulefield.php in previous versions. I've just adapted it to be used in this class. https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/blob/master/modules/ModuleBuilder/views/view.modulefield.php#L158 ## Description ## Motivation and Context Users on PHP 7.4+ with Warnings enabled are not shown a display error when creating a field in Studio/ModuleBuilder. ## How To Test This 1. Install version 7.11.20 on PHP 7.4 with default error reporting (WARNINGS enabled) 2. Confirm that user can create fields successfully without errors on screens. ## Types of changes - [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue) - [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality) - [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change) ### Final checklist - [x] My code follows the code style of this project found [here](https://docs.suitecrm.com/community/contributing-code/coding-standards/). - [ ] My change requires a change to the documentation. - [x] I have read the [**How to Contribute**](https://docs.suitecrm.com/community/contributing-code/) guidelines.

due to the fact, that the commit, which was done around 16 days ago, didn’t make it into the main branch yet, I had to apply this fix myself. In order to track my changes I made a git repo with a clone of the suiteCRM repository. After I made my changes I pushed the changes and created a release on github. After I downloaded the zip file I spotted a difference in size compared to official releases. I tried to install the system but the installer failed. After some investigation I found out, that at least one folder was missing compared to an official release. Namely the vendor folder. I copied the vendor folder from an original release into my release and voila I could install the CRM without any issues.

However I don’t wana risk missing some important files here so does anybody know if there is a special .gitignore file for releases or how are you guys creating release files?
