Reviewing a paper render rasterizes its PDF into page images under tmp/pdfs/. Four such folders had accumulated, 84 page images across four unpublished papers, and git reported the directory as untracked rather than ignored. Untracked is a weaker guarantee than it looks. The papers themselves are protected because papers/*/ is ignored, but their renders sit at the repo root and inherit none of that, so a git add -A would stage unpublished paper pages into a public repo. Ignoring tmp/ closes the gap at the directory that keeps getting recreated, rather than relying on whoever runs the next render to clean up after it.

Reviewing a paper render rasterizes its PDF into page images under
tmp/pdfs/. Four such folders had accumulated locally, 84 page imagesacross four unpublished papers, and git reported the directory as
untracked rather than ignored.
Untracked is a weaker guarantee than it looks. The papers themselves are
protected because
papers/*/is ignored, but their renders sit at the reporoot and inherit none of that protection. A
git add -Awould stageunpublished paper pages into a public repo, which is exactly what the
papers-stay-local rule exists to prevent.
Ignoring
tmp/closes the gap at the directory that keeps gettingrecreated, rather than relying on whoever runs the next render to clean up
after it.
The accumulated renders are separately being deleted locally. They are
fully regenerable from each paper's
main.pdf, so nothing original islost.
