Sometimes we need to ignore one or more files, for an undetermined amount of time, which usually is a short period. That because we don’t want to upload changes that shouldn’t be on the repository… Is there a way to ignore files temporarily?
GIT: Ignoring the content of a folder
For the version control of my projects, I’m using GIT. Some of them have folder that I can ignore the files, which doesn’t need to be versioned, neither deployed.
If you need to ignore the whole content of a folder (files and sub-folders [empty / full]), create a .gitignore file and add the following line:
|
1 |
[^.]* |
Save the file inside the folder you want to ignore the content.
Simple and useful tip…
