Do I need to commit the virtual environment?

Question

git

Hello.
I'm learning web development with Django on my own.
The question arose: is there any point in tracking and synchronizing changes in the virtual environment folder, which is also present in the Django project folder? (it stores python and gunicorn).
Or do you need to configure the virtual environment separately on the local and remote servers and synchronize only changes in the project files?
Thank you.

roughly speaking, these are third-party dependencies, they should be excluded from the git.
so that you can then quickly deploy exactly those packages that you need, you can use the pip freeze command, which will generate a file with dependencies that you already need to store in git.
