Is the venv folder necessary for git commits?

Question

Python

I want to save the project to the github repository
In the folder with the application, __pycache__ and venv folders are created via PyCharm.
Are these folders needed when committing to git, especially if venv weighs 250mb?

Answer 1

It is enough to generate a file where the package names will be stored using the pip freeze command. It is customary to call such a file requirements.txt
