Comment (by youknowriad):
> are we in agreement then to restore the 84 (86%) of the files that are
normal PHP files, mostly block code that’s required for WordPress to boot
and which is hand-maintained?
For me it doesn't really make sense for PHP code for blocks to live
separately from its JS code (edit, view...), these things evolve together.
So for blocks I don't think it makes sense to maintain these in Core at
the moment unless the JS/Styles... of the blocks is also maintained in
Core which I don't really see happening unless we merge the repos.
Now my opinion is that these are still best gitignored. Now it's not a
hill I'll die on, if you're not convinced by my arguments, I'm not sure
what I can say more than what I already said.
