Certain behaviors are configurable on a per repository basis. Add a .github/term-check.yaml file to your
repository based off of the following template:
# An array of patterns following .gitignore rules (http://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore) specifying which files and
# directories should be ignored by the app
ignore:
- foo
- bar/Deploying Your Own Instance
