Solution

  • you can use a backslash before the square brackets to escape them. For example, to ignore the "example" folder with square brackets in its name, you can add the following line to your gitignore file:

    \[example\]/

    If you want to ignore all folders with square brackets in their names, you can use this:

    *\[*/
