+#   According to pypa/pipenv#598, it is recommended to include Pipfile.lock in version control.
+#   However, in case of collaboration, if having platform-specific dependencies or dependencies
+#   having no cross-platform support, pipenv’s dependency resolution may lead to different
+#   Pipfile.lock files generated on each colleague’s machine.
+#   Thus, uncomment the following line if the pipenv environment is expected to be identical
+#   across all environments.
+#Pipfile.lock
