You can create your own .gitignore using

    git config --global core.excludesfile $HOME/.gitignore

Then put your desired entries in that file.

For user-specific and repo-specific file ignoring you should populate the following file: &lt;pre&gt;$GIT_DIR/info/exclude&lt;/pre&gt;

Usually $GIT_DIR stands for: &lt;pre&gt;your_repo_path/.git/&lt;/pre&gt;

In their .gitconfig:

    [core]
        excludesfile = ~/.global_gitignore

That way, they can ignore certain types of files globally. Each user can have their own global ignore file.

For example, you want ignore `~/some/path/.idea` folder:

&lt;!-- language: lang-bash --&gt;

    # 1. Add .idea to user specific gitignore file
    echo .idea &gt; ~/.gitignore
    
    # 2. Add gitignore file to gitconfig
    git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore

As indicated in [Atlassian&#39;s .gitignore tutorial](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/saving-changes/gitignore#personal-git-ignore-rules), you could also use your repo&#39;s `&lt;repo&gt;/.git/info/exclude` file that you can easily edit with any text editor. It works the same as `.gitignore`.
  
I could easily ignore my intelliJ files, personal dockerfiles and stuff only I need to work with.

    
    var i;
    for(i=10; i&gt;=0; i= i-1){
       var s;
       for(s=0; s&lt;i; s = s+1){
        document.write(&quot;*&quot;);
       }
       //i want this to print a new line
       /document.write(?);

    }

I am printing a pyramid of stars, I can&#39;t get the new line to print.

I can&#39;t set the title of UIButton using IB as center. My title is multi line.&lt;br&gt;It is giving like this one&lt;br&gt; ![enter image description here][1]



But I want like this one&lt;br&gt; ![enter image description here][2]


I have given space in this but I don&#39;t want to do that. As it is not aligned exactly for some cases and I know there is a property of UILabel to set the alignment but I don&#39;t want to write a code for that.. just want to set everything from IB.

Thanks

I&#39;ve an automatic building service which download from a git private repository.
The problem is that when it tries to clone repository it need to provide the password, because it is not remembered; so because there is no human interaction, it waits forever the password.

Git stash seems to do a lot of what I want, except that it is a little hard to script, as the if you have no changes, then `git stash; git stash pop` will do something different than if you do have changes in your repository.

It appears that `git stash create` is the answer to that problem, and everything works, except for one thing… I can&#39;t get rid of the created stash. Is there any way to get rid of the stash?

To make it 100% clear what I am doing:

Create the stash:

    ~/tmp/a(master) $ git stash create 
    60629375d0eb12348f9d31933dd348ad0f038435
    ~/tmp/a(master) $ git st
    # On branch master
    # Changes to be committed:
    #   (use &quot;git reset HEAD &lt;file&gt;...&quot; to unstage)
    #
    #	new file:   b
    #
    ~/tmp/a(master) $ git reset --hard
    HEAD is now at 555d572 log message

Use the stash:

    ~/tmp/a(master) $ git apply 60629375d0eb12348f9d31933dd348ad0f038435
    fatal: can&#39;t open patch &#39;60629375d0eb12348f9d31933dd348ad0f038435&#39;: No such file or directory
    ~/tmp/a(master) $ git stash apply 60629375d0eb12348f9d31933dd348ad0f038435
    # On branch master
    # Changes to be committed:
    #   (use &quot;git reset HEAD &lt;file&gt;...&quot; to unstage)
    #
    #	new file:   b
    #

Delete the stash: (except that this last bit doesn&#39;t work)

    ~/tmp/a(master) $ git stash drop !$
    git stash drop 60629375d0eb12348f9d31933dd348ad0f038435
    &#39;60629375d0eb12348f9d31933dd348ad0f038435&#39; is not a stash reference

How to delete a stash created with git stash create?

I&#39;ve been wondering if there&#39;s an easy way to push and pull a local branch with a remote branch with a different name without always specifying both names.

For example:

    $ git clone myrepo.git
    $ git checkout -b newb
    $ ...
    $ git commit -m &quot;Some change&quot;
    $ git push origin newb:remote_branch_name

Now if someone updates remote_branch_name, I can:

    $ git pull

And everything is merged / fast-forwarded. However, if I make changes in my local &quot;newb&quot;, I can&#39;t:

    $ git push

Instead, I have to:

    % git push origin newb:remote_branch_name

Seems a little silly. If `git-pull` uses `git-config branch.newb.merge` to determine where to pull from, why couldn&#39;t `git-push` have a similar config option? Is there a nice shortcut for this or should I just continue the long way?

How can I push a local Git branch to a remote with a different name easily?

I am wondering what the proper way is to delete a repository when using gitolite.

Is there anything else I have to do besides delete the repository from the server and remove all configurations related to the repository I am removing?

Deleting Git Repository Gitolite?

My VPS provider recommends that I leave my SSH port to the custom port number they assign it by default (not 22).  The thing is the while I know I can give the port number when create a remote config, it seems like I can&#39;t do the same when doing a git clone.  I am using gitolite so I clone commands look like:

    git clone git@mydomain.com:gitolite-admin

Is there a way to covert this to using the custom ssh port number?

I should also mention I am running cygwin on windows.  I have seen multiple places saying to add the custom port to the `~/.ssh/config` file like

    Host mydomain.com
        Port 12345

however in cygwin, that file does not seem to exist.

Git On Custom SSH Port

I am currently on a debug branch, and would like to switch to the master branch, without modifying the working tree (leave it the way it is in the debug branch), so I can commit some of the changes into the master branch.

Is there a way to do this?

Do you think it is a good practice to commit `.gitignore` into a Git repo?

Some people don&#39;t like it, but I think it is good as you can track the file&#39;s history. Isn&#39;t it?

Should you commit .gitignore into the Git repos?

I am working in a team environment, and there is already a `.gitignore` file.

I want to add more items to the `.gitignore` file, but I don&#39;t want to check this file in either. It is possible to set custom ignore files which only apply to me?

Also, I want to give someone read only access to a private git repository on our server, if I add their SSH key to our server they will get full access like everyone else.  How can I limit it to read-only, no commits allowed.

For a specific JavaScript project, I am using the [TinyWeb HTTP Server](http://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/tinyweb/) for local testing (to work around a specific security limitation that applies to file URLs). That program requires I have an `index.html` file in the root directory, but I do not want to commit that file to my Git repository.

How can I stop Git from bugging me about this &quot;untracked file&quot; on every commit? I do want to commit all `index.html` files located in subdirectories.

How do I tell Git to ignore a specific filename only in the repository&#39;s top level?

I&#39;ve a `.gitignore` file at the root of my repo. The `.gitignore` file has the following pattern to exclude the compiled Python files and that is the only line in the file.

    *.pyc

Now when i do the following at the root of the repo.

    git init
    git add . 
    git status 

It shows that it still tracks the `.pyc` file and tries to add it as new file. See output below.

System info: Windows 7, cygwin 

Note: This issue is CLEARLY not about the ignored file being already tracked. I also tried both DOS- and Unix-style line endings on the `.gitignore` file. 

`git status` gives:

    # On branch master
    #
    # Initial commit
    #
    # Changes to be committed:
    #   (use &quot;git rm --cached &lt;file&gt;...&quot; to unstage)
    #
    #	new file:   .gitignore
    #	new file:   feedapp/__init__.py
    #	new file:   feedapp/appconfig.py
    #	new file:   feedapp/appconfig.pyc


How do I troubleshoot this further? 



.gitignore does not work - file is still being tracked

I have a git repository hosted on Github. After committing many files, I am realizing that I need to create `.gitignore` and exclude `.exe`, `.obj` files.

However, will it automatically remove these committed files from the repository? Is there any way to force that?
