+# The essentials — TMP Settings.asset, the LiberationSans SDF font asset, the
+# shaders and the style sheet — are COMMITTED on purpose. ProjectSettings and
+# every TMP component reference them by GUID, so a teammate who clones without
+# them gets pink text and missing-reference errors instead of a working scene.

+# "Examples & Extras" is a separate, optional import (~15 MB of sample scenes,
+# sprites and fonts). Nothing in the game references it and anyone who wants it
+# can re-import it from Window > TextMeshPro.
