Actually, this can be quite useful (at least with IntelliJ) to share common run configurations (e.g., run all tests, start this server with these settings) and other settings.

IntelliJ recommends not checking in a few types of files that are specific to the individual: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206...

Makefile or adding those scripts to package.json is a much better idea than vscode's own task configuration file which might not work if someone uses another editor.
