I'm currently using BitBucket for my repos with the git engine. I'm not using github since is a private project, so I can't set it public.
When I create my .gitignore file with gitignore.io, trying to ignore PhpStorm and WebStorm, Gitkraken (which is my git client on Mac) it isn't ignoring the .idea folder. And each time I change my workspace layout opening or closing a sidebar or a file, then git is tracking that change. I can't figure out what's wrong, since I've also tried to set .idea/ in .gitignore, but the files inside it are still tracked...
Any ideas?
Update your .gitignore file. For instance, add one more folder for those you want to untrack in .gitignore: foldername.
To stop tracking a file, you need to remove it from the index. This can be achieved with the below command.
Remove all tracked files, including wanted and unwanted:
git rm --cached .
then
All files will be added to track, excluding those in .gitignore:
git add .
