Closed arisgk closed 5 years ago

arisgk commented 5 years ago

Environment

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS

Steps to reproduce

  1. Update your .env file in project root (which is gitignored)
  2. Run git status to see if the change was tracked by git

Expected result

Changes to .env (or any other gitignored files) should be ignored

Actual result

Change to .env is not ignored

Potential solution

According to the answer with the most upvotes in this question, something like:

git rm -r --cached .
git add .
git commit -m "Fixes untracked files"

will fix the issue
