Acquia recommends that you do not commit contributed dependencies to your repository. Example code for Drupal projects:

    git rm -r --cached vendor docroot/core docroot/libraries docroot/modules/contrib docroot/themes/contrib docroot/profiles/contrib node_modules

Add these to your `.gitignore`. For an example, see [acquia/drupal-recommended-project](https://github.com/acquia/drupal-recommended-project/blob/master/.gitignore).
