git ignore files

Question

I just started getting into git and wanted to ignore files but there were some problems that I didn't know how to solve. For example, I wanted to ignore html files. I used {code...} and then in the edit mode of the .gitignore file, I wrote {code. ..} Save and exit. When I was looking at git status, the hmtl file...

1. There is nothing wrong with the way you ignore files
2. .gitignore files can work normally without submitting them
3. Git will only ignore untracked files in the .git library based on .gitignore

If your "new file.html" can be ignored and the "old file.html" that has been submitted is re-modified, then Git will not ignore the latter.

Method:
1. Execute git rm --cached old file.html
2. Execute git commit old file.html -m 'Comment...'

Explanation:
1. Delete the tracked files from the .git library without deleting them locally (if you want to delete them locally, do not add git before the rm command)
2. Submit, and then the files are removed from the .git library. Really deleted

After that, "old file.html" will no longer be tracked

---------------Separating line-----------------

Because the .gitignore file has been submitted, Git has tracked it, and you have modified the .gitignore file again
Then when you check the status with git status, of course it is:

modified: .gitignore 红色标记状态，等待加入add命令暂存下一步提交

Method 1, undo modifications:
Execute git checkout -- ".gitignore"

Method 2: Submit the modification to the .git library and let Git track it:
Execute git add .gitignore
Execute git commit .gitignore -m 'Comment...'

Modified.gitignore, it needs to be submitted normally, and there is no problem

If gitignore does not appear to be modified, then the file you used to ignore the file has been ignored. Isn’t it very messy?

Did you not commit? . . .gitignore generally requires commit
