ccls is a stand-alone server implementing the Language Server Protocol for C, C++, and Objective-C languages. It can be used with any editor which provides an LSP client implementation. It originates from cquery.

It's basically used to provide semantic highlight and code navigation to big source code bases as WebKit. Many editors support LSP servers.

I don't understand the reason for this change. I've been using a local .ccls file for months, ccls running from the SDK actually needs such file. So I would like to revert this change and commit my .ccls file because I think it would be useful for a wider audience :)
Unless your IDE was generating a .ccls file? That seems to be what this patch implies, please elaborate :)

cat .ccls
%compile_commands.json
%h -x
%h c++-header
%h --include=config.h
%cpp --include=config.h

Having a .ccls file is optional for ccls to work. That's the reason why I decided to add it to the list of ignored files instead of committing it. But I don't have a strong opinion here, i.e. I'm fine with you adding a .ccls file.
