[jira] [Created] (ARROW-7949) Update to '.gitignore' to not track user specific 'cpp/Brewfile.lock.json' file

Tarek Allam created ARROW-7949:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Update to '.gitignore' to not track user specific  'cpp/Brewfile.lock.json' file
                 Key: ARROW-7949
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7949
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: macOS-10.15.3
            Reporter: Tarek Allam


In the developer guides for Python, there is a suggestion for users on macOS to use Homebrew to install all dependencies required for building Arrow C++. This creates a 'cpp/Brewfile.lock.json' file is specific to the system it sits on.

It would be desirable for this not to be tracked by version control. To prevent this accidental addition, perhaps it should be ignored in the gitignore file for the respository
