Fixing untracked files
Raw
gistfile1.txt
Even if you haven't tracked the files so far, git seems to be able to "know" about them even after you add them to .gitignore.
Run the following commands from the top folder of your git repo.
Step 1. Commit your current changes, or you will lose them.
Then:
git rm -r --cached .
git add .
git commit -m "fixed untracked files"
