How to add gradle.properties in git-ignore file android? [duplicate]

Question

I am trying to add gradle.properties like rest but still changes that files changes are showing in git status.

Is there any other way to add files in git-ignore using android studio.

Answer 1

You should use git rm to untrack the gradle.properties file first.

git rm --cached gradle.properties
git commit -m "Remove gradle.properties"

Then add the following line to your project .gitignore file

gradle.properties

Commit and push that and any new changes to this file should not be tracked.
