How to ignore .gitignore files in git status? -
this question has answer here:
- ignore .gitignore file itself 19 answers
when run git status
, lists bunch of .gitignore
files not interested in seeing in list (they got updated locally eclipse
). browsed numerous posts in regards seemingly common issue none of suggested solutions worked me.
e.g. went ~/.gitconfig
, found that
excludesfile = ~/.gitignore_global
then went file , added .gitignore
@ tail did not change anything.
how ignore .gitignore files in git status don't clutter view?
it sounds might misunderstanding "ignore" means git. file name mentioned in .gitignore
means if file untracked, git status
not show file untracked file.
ignoring file not when file tracked git, , has been modified. considered change repository, git doesn't let ignore. (after all, have told git file important enough store in repository, git has obligation inform changes file.)
if tools (eclipse) modifying .gitignore
files, suggest instruct eclipse stop doing that.
