Aider tries to commit files that are in GitIgnore

[zenturacp]

Issue

It modifies files that is in .gitignore and when it wants to commit the files it failes because they are in Gitignore, its not supposed to commit files that are in the .gitignore, the file was added so it was modified, it should just not commit it

This should be fixed in the latest version. You can get it like this:

aider --upgrade

# or...

python -m pip install --upgrade --upgrade-strategy only-if-needed aider-chat

If you have a chance to try it, let me know if it works better for you.
