I have file a.css and b.css in the same folder. My framework combines those files in a file called temp.a12cab4598347b07f0079d.css This file will be generated wherever there is a css file, so folder matching is no good. Can I ignore all these files using something like
temp.*.css
Thank you

gitignore file is a plain text file where each line contains a pattern for files/directories to ignore. Generally, this is placed in the root folder of the repository, and that's what I recommend. However, you can put it in any folder in the repository and you can also have multiple . gitignore files.
gitignore ignores just files that weren't tracked before (by git add ). Run git reset name_of_file to unstage the file and keep it. In case you want to also remove the given file from the repository (after pushing), use git rm --cached name_of_file .
If you want to ignore a file that you've committed in the past, you'll need to delete the file from your repository and then add a .gitignore rule for it. Using the --cached option with git rm means that the file will be deleted from your repository, but will remain in your working directory as an ignored file.
The easiest and most common way to ignore files is to use a gitignore file. Simply create a file named . gitignore in the repository's root directory. Then, add names and patterns for any files and directories that should not be added to the repository.
It will work as expected.
Also, if you need to do this recursively in any subdirectory
**/temp.*.css
