    Hi @JohnRossitter! In 5.6, you can add this file in your .collabignore file which should ignore this file.

    Hi @Jakems, could you show me the ignore rule for the build_info file? Is it a text file or some other kind of file?

    @Ry The file is located at Assets/StreamingAssets/build_info and it has no ending like .txt.
    The rule in the gitignore (located in the Project Root Folder) is "Assets/StreamingAssets/build_info"

    Try moving the build_info file out of your Project, publishing the "delete" of the file in Collab, then add the file back into your Project. If the ignore rule is working then you shouldn't see the build_info file listed in the Collab Toolbar when you add it back to your Project.

    @ryanc-unity Can you tell me if there is a way to stop auto-generating this build_info file?
