The best solution to tackle this issue is to Globally ignore these files from all the git repos on your system. This can be done by creating a global gitignore file like:

vi ~/.gitignore_global

Adding Rules for ignoring files like:

`

Compiled source

################### *.com *.class *.dll *.exe *.o *.so

Packages

############

it's better to unpack these files and commit the raw source

git has its own built in compression methods

*.7z *.dmg *.gz *.iso *.jar *.rar *.tar *.zip

Logs and databases

###################### *.log *.sql *.sqlite

OS generated files

###################### .DS_Store .DS_Store? ._* .Spotlight-V100 .Trashes ehthumbs.db Thumbs.db `

Now, add this file to your global git config:

git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore_global
