how to remove or stop auto generating debug.log file in vscode?

Question

I'm working with nextjs project on the vscode. From a few days ago, debug.log file generated automatically for any directory where I'm working with. I want to stop generating this debug.log automatically, or at least want to know how to add this debug.log to the gitignore. I added .log, debug.log, **/debug.log, but gitignore don't works.

Maybe you need to remove cached *.log files in your project by running git rm --cached *.log, then stage your .gitignore file using git add .gitignore or you can use git add .
