I have written some powershell code, since I wanted to achive two things. The first one was to organize my gists and the second one to learn ps1 script syntax. Until now I guess I've managed some impressive things on one hand, on the other I got stuck...
I read lots of interesting and sophisticated articles on git and earlier on I also used .gitignore files quite successfully.
Now this particular script does EVERYTIME Ignore the .gitignore seamingly not dependend on what im doing.
May somebody of you help me busting this mystery why this script always ignores my gitignore - it sucks that everytime on the first hand it uploads itself everywhere (which is the reason why it writes itself to the .gitignore in line: 40 ++) and even more it gets wierd if everytime the node_modules where uploaded too
(testing this script on a freshly generated npx create-react-app testapp in the apps root folder)
By the way, to make things easier I also cleaned the cache with git rm -r --cached . in line 88 before the git add . this also does not work

Here i will give you a basic idea of how my .gitignore file looks like

Thank you my dear friends out there for your quick support and taking time to overview this huge bulk of code.
Sincierly
PowerShell 5, by default, appends text in ASCII and git expects your .gitignore to be in UTF8.
You can solve this in 2 ways.
pwsh instead of from powershell. pwsh will launch PowerShell core. PowerShell Core defaults to UTF-8."text" | Out-File -append -Encoding UTF8 -filepath .gitignore instead of "text" >> .gitignore.
