Optimize for packagist production

[luukvhoudt]

When downloading the Twig package from packagist a lot of files are included which are never used in production or even by the developer itself. Have a look, this is what I get in my vendor/twig/twig folder after composer require "twig/twig:^3.0":

CHANGELOG
composer.json
doc
drupal_test.sh
.editorconfig
.gitattributes
.github
.gitignore
LICENSE
.php_cs.dist
README.rst
src

Files and directories I think can be ignored:

.github
doc
drupal_test.sh
.editorconfig
.gitattributes
.gitignore
.php_cs.dist

These files together are 640kb, while the whole package is about 1700kb. That's about 48% of the total file size.

Please fix this. Love the package, thank you <3

excluding the doc source code from the archive indeed probably makes sense (that's probably the bulk of these 640KB as others are small files)

[luukvhoudt]

Yes it's now 620KB

Here is a list of the useless files: https://github.com/code-lts/doctum/blob/b2fca74060ba1a84c1dac23eec21221fbc589524/releases/5.4.0-dev/manifest.json#L3712

Files:

        "vendor/twig/twig/.gitignore",
        "vendor/twig/twig/CHANGELOG",
        "vendor/twig/twig/composer.json",
        "vendor/twig/twig/README.rst",
        "vendor/twig/twig/.gitattributes",
        "vendor/twig/twig/drupal_test.sh",
        "vendor/twig/twig/.php_cs.dist",
        "vendor/twig/twig/.editorconfig",

Folders:

        "vendor/twig/twig/doc",
        "vendor/twig/twig/.github",

Most files mentioned above do not contribute significantly to the size of the archive. Can some create a PR to exclude the doc/ directory as this is indeed contributing significantly?

@fabpot please look again at #3570 - it excludes the doc along with the rest of unusable files in prod

Multiply it by the number of installs of twig ;)

@williamdes But these aren't installed in one system.
