Octane & Roadrunner binary - to commit or not to commit?

I'm following the instructions for Laravel Octane and using Roadrunner (I prefer running Go binaries than C++ ones), and the instructions say to download the binary to the system.

I'm guessing that we don't commit these, since they're platform dependent, so is it most common to add this to your .gitignore file? Or is there something that happens during the get-binary process that ties the binary to the repo?

Does that also mean that we should run get-binary as part of our deployment process?

Thanks!

Just like with php and nginx (or apache) you just install it on the server once and you have it there forever
