the simple workaround would be to have .envrc optionally load another gitignored file if it exists, which sounds much safer than accidentally committing local changes, even with plain git.
If that's not possible, maybe OP can rename it to .envrc.example, and commit that. Then put in the instructions to rename .envrc.example to .envrc on checkout
Unfortunately neither of that worked, as those are multiple monorepos with different code owners. JJ is nice, but not worth that much of a work around it..
