Today I learnt that you can tell GitHub which files in a repo are generated, so they're not shown in the default pull request view!

Customizing how changed files appear on GitHub - GitHub Docs
To keep certain files from displaying in diffs by default, or counting toward the repository language, you can mark them with the linguist-generated attribute in a .gitattributes file.
