PROBLEM<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There many different .gitignore files into your project.
\nThe “.gitignore” seams not working at all.
\nYour pull like commands comes with “ignored files”.<\/p>\n

SOLUTION<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    \n
  1. Create a .gitignore pattern.<\/li>\n
  2. Fix your repository’s .gitignore file into master, at least.
    \nSame to develop or another branch.<\/li>\n
  3. After updating or merging your local stuff, check the .gitignore content.
    \nIf the local .gitignore file is not like the pattern, just overwrite it with the pattern file.
    \nIf your project is too messy,  simply overwrite local using the pattern as a “just after procedure”, to make sure.<\/li>\n
  4. Avoid having more than one .gitignore file.
    \nSet just one under the project’s root dir.
    \nIn most of all usual cases, is enough.<\/li>\n
  5. If the file is already staged, the git may NOT ignore it eventhough is registered in .gitignore.
    \nTo fix this, move the files to another temporary place, commit and move back, then commit again.
    \nYou may track the git behavior using the “git status” after each operation.
    \nYou’ll see that the files to be ignored will disappear.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
