Also, updates the root .gitignore file for this project and adds new files at:

  • extractors/.gitignore

A couple of comments, but I think it's great to have this.

We should also note that this flowchart is for calling pre-finalize.sh manually. If you integrate the script into your CodeQL distribution, there will be a slightly different flow.

SPF ==> |run the cds extractor| DIDX
JSE -.-> |extract javascript files:<br>_.html, .js, .json, .ts_| DB
DTRAC ==> |run the build --command| SPF
JSE ==> |run autobuild within<br>the javascript extractor| DTRAC

I think the autobuilder extracts the JavaScript files. The pre-finalize.sh is not run by the autobuilder, so I think this node is in the wrong place.
