Walkthrough

Reintroduced and expanded .gitignore patterns; bumped src/package.xml version to 2.1.2, added isStochasticTime="True" to two transformer elements, and renamed several dataSheet identifiers and their layout references (InputDataSheet → InputDatasheet, IntermediateDataSheet → IntermediateDatasheet, OutputDataSheet → OutputDatasheet).

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Change Summary
Build configuration /.gitignore	Reintroduces Visual Studio ignore entry *.vs/ (formatting adjusted); adds .metadata and *.ssimpkg ignore patterns.
Package manifest & public XML src/package.xml	Version changed 2.1.1 → 2.1.2; added isStochasticTime="True" to transformer elements firstModel and secondModel; renamed dataSheet identifiers and all corresponding layout references: InputDataSheet → InputDatasheet, IntermediateDataSheet → IntermediateDatasheet, OutputDataSheet → OutputDatasheet.

Check name	Status	Explanation
Title check	✅ Passed	The title mentions 'tranformer' (misspelled) and 'gitignore', but the main change involves multiprocessing support, version bumping, and naming corrections—only partially aligned with the actual changeset.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	No functions found in the changed files to evaluate docstring coverage. Skipping docstring coverage check.
Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.

In @.gitignore:
- Around line 41-48: The .gitignore currently uses the pattern "*.vs/" which
does not match the actual .vs directory; update the ignore entry to ".vs/" so
the .vs folder (and its contents) are properly ignored, replacing the "*.vs/"
line with ".vs/" in the .gitignore file.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Fix the Visual Studio ignore pattern so it actually matches .vs/.

Line 42 uses *.vs/, which won’t match the .vs/ folder (leading dot isn’t matched by *). Use .vs/ to prevent accidental commits.

🛠️ Proposed fix

-*.vs/
+.vs/
