The files in xcshareddata/ should be added to the repo (but not the ones in xcuserdata/): Xcode 9.3 adds a new IDEWorkspaceChecks.plist file to a workspace’s shared data, to store the state of necessary workspace checks. Committing this file to source control will prevent unnecessary rerunning of those checks for each user opening the workspace. … Read more
This option –ignored does the trick: git status –ignored (Update 1) I found the –ignored option alone doesn’t work in certain git installations, perhaps it’s a git bug. In those cases, an additional -s works for me: git status -s –ignored (Update 2) One user reported –ignored option is not supported in git version 1.7.0.4. … Read more
You can’t easily just ignore changes to particular lines of a file, I’m afraid, so you’re probably stuck with having a separate configuration file. Below I’ve listed two typical ways of dealing with this, and one slightly more exotic one: Have a sample configuration file in git Here, you would keep a file config.sample in … Read more
You can use the skip-worktree bit. Turn it on with: git update-index –skip-worktree <file> After that, git will never stage local changes for <file> and will fail (loudly) if git itself has to write to <file> (say, in a merge or a checkout). If you ever want to stage a future change, you can turn … Read more
This is simple, just add another entry !my_folder in your .gitignore #ignore all kind of files * #except php files !*.php !my_folder The last line will take special care of my_folder, and will not ignore any php files within it; but files within other folders will still be ignored because of the first pattern of … Read more
Generally the xcuserdata is safe to ignore for individual projects. Each user gets their own file that saves userstate, folders opened, last file opened, that sort of stuff. It does contain your schemes. If it is the first time opening and the file doesn’t exist, Xcode will create it for you. However… we have run … Read more
Just add / before static/, should be like /static/ # ^ forward slash before the folder name signifies root dir
I created a quick-and-dirty plugin, sublime-gitignorer, to solve exactly this problem. It is currently tested on Ubuntu and Windows in Sublime Text 2 and 3. I expect it will also work on any other Linux distro or on Mac. To install, assuming you have package control, just: Press CTRL+SHIFT+P (CMD+SHIFT+P on Mac) Select “Install Package” … Read more
The solution is to place a leading slash on the .gitignore entries: /foo/ /bar.txt (I thought I tried this before posting on StackOverflow, but clearly I hadn’t tried it properly, as this works perfectly.)
This depends on the behavior of your shell. Git doesn’t do any work to determine how to expand these. In general, * matches any single file or folder: /a/*/z matches /a/b/z matches /a/c/z doesn’t match /a/b/c/z ** matches any string of folders: /a/**/z matches /a/b/z matches /a/b/c/z matches /a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/i/z doesn’t match /a/b/c/z/d.pr0n Combine ** with … Read more
