git-ignore-file README

This is the README for the extension "Add to GIT ignore", which adds files to .gitignore or .git/info/exclude.

Features

Add files or general patterns based on their filename to .gitignore or .git/info/exclude.

Usage

Right-click the file in the Explorer and select Add to GIT Ignore List....

A list of possible patterns based on the filename of your selected file appears. Choose the one you like.

Next, you need to select whether to add the pattern to the .gitignore file (this file is usually shared in GIT) or to .git/info/exclude (select this if you do not want to share the exclusion).
