Adrian Freihofer a510d455d3 vscode: drop .vscode folder
There is a new official bitbake plugin:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=yocto-project.yocto-bitbake

This plugin automatically updates the .vscode/settings.json file.
Having the settings.json file in git and a plugin which modifies this
file is not ideal. It can lead to anoying situations especially when
working with git. For example a git stash reverts the settings which are
automatically applied by the plugin. While git stashed the settings.json
file the plugin immediately changes the file again and tries to run
bitbake based on the newly generated settings. When git does a stash pop
the restored settings.json file conflicts with the new settigns.json
file which has been generated while the git stash took place.

Therefore this patch removes the .vscode folder from git.

Removing the settings.json leads to other issues as already described
in the commit message of 5ff688fe29. But we still need another solution
where the settings.json file is not in Git.

Discussion is here:

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/

OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.

Contribution Guidelines

Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.

Where to Send Patches

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:

OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):

BitBake (files in bitbake/):

Documentation (files in documentation/):

meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):

If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
