Gitignore generator

Put it to work

Combine ignore rules for development environments.

From input to output

Open Gitignore generator and load the example.
Read the format notes, choose your options, and replace the example with your input. Start with test data instead of sensitive information.
Run the tool and inspect the result and status. If an error appears, correct the input format and run it again.
Copy the output or download a file. Generated and converted results are not saved automatically.

Combine ignore rules for development environments. Review for your project. Ignore rules do not untrack files already tracked by Git.
