My .gitignore file seems to be being ignored by Git - could the .gitignore file be corrupt? Which file format, locale or culture does Git expect?
My .gitignore:
# This is a comment
debug.log
nbproject/
The output from git status:
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
#
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add ..." to include in what will be committed)
#
# debug.log
# nbproject/
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
I would like debug.log and nbproject/ not to appear in the untracked files list.
Where should I start looking to fix this?
