Ignoring TypeScript generated files from Git

I recently started a project with TypeScript and found that the js and js.map files were being added to my repository. These files are automatically generated with each build of your TypeScript code so they're not needed in the repository. To remove these if you've already added them, run the following:

git rm src/**/**/*.js
git rm src/**/**/*.js.map

Following that, you can add these lines to your .gitignore to ensure they're not added back:

src/**/**/*.js
src/**/**/*.js.map

Visual Studio Update 3 and TypeScript external module compilation

I recently updated to Visual Studio 2013 Update 3, but it appears as though the TypeScript compiler is a little more strict in external module compilation. If you receive an error message asking the --module flag to be set, you need to add this to your build configurations in your project:

  <PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|AnyCPU' ">
    <TypeScriptModuleKind>amd</TypeScriptModuleKind>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|AnyCPU' ">
    <TypeScriptModuleKind>amd</TypeScriptModuleKind>
  </PropertyGroup>

After adding the TypeScriptModule kind node to the project properties, the compiler can correctly compile external TypeScript modules!
