I'm trying to make git ignore some of my files and I found one description about how you could do this
From: http://github.com/guides/git-cheat-sheet TO IGNORE SOME FILES
Add a file in the root directory called .gitignore and add some files to it: (comments begin with hash) *.log db/schema.rb db/schema.sql
Git automatically ignores empty directories. If you want to have a log/ directory, but want to ignore all the files in it, add the following lines to the root .gitignore: (lines beginning with ‘!’ are exceptions)
log/* !.gitignore
Then add an empty .gitignore in the empty directory:
touch log/.gitignore
So I made a file called .gitignore in my folder for my project and wrote the following in it:
phpMyAdmin/*
nbproject/*
inc/mysql_config.php
!.gitignore
But when I commit, the files isent excluded from the commit...
