GIT: Ignore local changes made to a file that cannot be in the .gitignore
Raw
local_ignore.md

For example, ignore your .rvmrc file:

git update-index --assume-unchanged .rvmrc

Find out which files will always be considered as unchanged:

git ls-files -v | grep ^[a-z]

Remove the unchanged flag:

git update-index --no-assume-unchanged .rvmrc
