I have a yii 1 application. And I have a .gitignore file in the folder: Yii/sdi. The file .gitignore looks like this:
assets/*
!assets/.gitignore
protected/runtime/*
!protected/runtime/.gitignore
protected/data/*.db
But by source control there are still 10K changes, for example this files in the folder:
C:\xampp\htdocs\yii\sdi\protected\components\widgets\select2\assets\js\i18n
So what I have to change in the .gitignore file?
Thank you
I deleted the folder SDI. So I have it now directly in the root folder - all the other folders.
And I have the .gitignore file like this:
# phpstorm project files
.idea
# netbeans project files
nbproject
# zend studio for eclipse project files
.buildpath
.project
.settings
# windows thumbnail cache
Thumbs.db
# composer vendor dir
/vendor
# composer itself is not needed
composer.phar
# Mac DS_Store Files
.DS_Store
# phpunit itself is not needed
phpunit.phar
# local phpunit config
/phpunit.xml
tests/_output/*
tests/_support/_generated
#vagrant folder
/.vagrant
protected/components/widgets/select2/assets/*
assets/*
!assets/.gitignore
protected/runtime/*
!protected/runtime/.gitignore
protected/data/*.db
And the .gitignore file is in the .idea folder
So Webscraper is root folder then in the root folder I have a .idea folder. and in the .idea folder there I have the .gitignore file.
oke, if I do this:
!.gitignore
protected/components/widgets/select2/assets/*
# Default ignored files
/shelf/
/workspace.xml
# Datasource local storage ignored files
/dataSources/
/dataSources.local.xml
# Editor-based HTTP Client requests
/httpRequests/
# phpstorm project files
.idea
# netbeans project files
nbproject
# zend studio for eclipse project files
.buildpath
.project
.settings
# windows thumbnail cache
Thumbs.db
# composer vendor dir
vendor/
# composer itself is not needed
composer.phar
# Mac DS_Store Files
.DS_Store
# phpunit itself is not needed
phpunit.phar
# local phpunit config
/phpunit.xml
tests/_output/*
tests/_support/_generated
#vagrant folder
/.vagrant
.protected/vendor/*
assets/*
!assets/.gitignore
protected/runtime/*
!protected/runtime/.gitignore
protected/data/*.db
still have 9K plus changes
Your .gitignore-file is in the directory /sdi and you want to ignore the assets-folder, where is reachable from sdi-folder via protected/components/widgets/select2/assets.
So why you just add assets/* to the .gitignore in the sdi directory? This would ignore a assets-folder in the directory /sdi where there is none!
So add the FULL path (relative path) to the folder/file where you want to ignore. In your example:
protected/components/widgets/select2/assets/*
After this entry, you won‘t have 10k of changes in your git working directory
