Remove all .gitignore files of my folder

Question

Is there a way for finding and deleting all .gitignore files ?

I must delete them before upload my project folder.

on linux / mac os execute the folling command in your terminal:

find . -type f -name .gitignore -exec rm {} \;

this finds all files of type file with the name .gitignore and deletes them.

Also you can do it with standard git methods, see git clean man and -X option.
