我.keep在 rails 框架的每个目录中看到文件。

回答by Pawe? Dawczak
This is not for Rails actually, this is for git.
这实际上不是针对 Rails 的，这是针对 git 的。
Git doesn't track "empty" directories, so, the directories like eg. "/logs" wouldn't end up in the repository. Having a .keepin it, makes the directory to be tracked.
Git 不跟踪“空”目录，因此，例如目录。“/logs”不会出现在存储库中。有一个.keep在里面，使目录被跟踪。

更新：
In Unix based systems, files starting with a dot(.) are considered hidden and do not appear in the UI. Hence might not disturb you.
在基于 Unix 的系统中，以点 ( .)开头的文件被认为是隐藏的，不会出现在 UI 中。因此可能不会打扰您。
