I think we need to delete the files and folder

To stop tracking a file, we must remove it from the index:

git rm --cached <file>
git rm -r --cached <folder>

Then after pushing this, we should be able to have different variants locally.

Let me know if you have concerns @tarensanders

resolved to just leave this uncommitted.

git update-index --assume-unchanged <file> will locally ignore even if tracked.
