Description of changes
These are all improvements to the local development environment, specifically for our Golang code.
We recently removed generated protobuf files from the repository (see #3222). This resulted in needing to build these for my IDE to be happy. I eventually fixed what was a painful experience getting all this set up, so I added some details about getting it set up in the
README.md
and tweaked one thing in theMakefile
for consistency with the other dependencies.Note: there is some noise in the
README.md
diff that is from my linter.We also weren't ignoring generated files, so I added them to
.gitignore
so they don't get re-added accidentally.Test plan
Run
make build
pytest
for python,yarn test
for js,cargo test
for rust
