Was doing some experiments with Git and gitignore
The following worked to achieve what I was trying to achieve…all the images and all the unnecessary files in the var folder were being tracked…
“To untrack a single file that has already been added/initialized to your repository, i.e., stop tracking the file but not delete it from your system use: git rm –cached filename
To untrack every file that is now in your .gitignore:
First commit any outstanding code changes, and then, run this command:
git rm -r –cached .
This removes any changed files from the index(staging area), then just run:
git add .
Commit it:
git commit -m “.gitignore is now working”
To undo git rm –cached filename, use git add filename.
”
