Update Gitignore

This skill adds specific files or patterns to .gitignore to prevent them from being tracked by git.

Instructions

  1. Check Status:

    • Check if the file/directory is already in .gitignore.
    • Check if the file is currently tracked by git using git ls-files <path>.
  2. Update .gitignore:

    • Append the path or pattern to the .gitignore file in the root directory.
    • Add a comment if necessary to explain why it's ignored.
  3. Untrack (if needed):

    • If the file was already tracked, run git rm --cached <path> to stop tracking it while keeping the local copy.
