I have .gitignore as
index.php
protected/config/
I wanted to ignore only index.php in root but git is ignoring all files with index.php in sub-folders as well. How I can modify .gitignore to ignore only specific index.php file and not all files with name index.php

gitignore file is usually placed in the repository's root directory. However, you can create multiple . gitignore files in different subdirectories in your repository.
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.
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.
Use /index.php in your .gitignore
