remove files inside .gitignore files

# First solution
$ git rm -r --cached . # We remove
$ git add . # We stage
$ git commit -m "Clean up ignored files" # We commit



# Second solution : if you have a lot of files
# It's basicaly the first solution in one line
git rm --cached `git ls-files -i -c --exclude-from=.gitignore`

# If you are on Windows and the line above didn't work, try this one in Powershell
git ls-files -i -c --exclude-from=.gitignore | %{git rm --cached $_}

gitignore exclude folder

# Ignore all directories, and all sub-directories, and it's contents:
*/*

#Now ignore all files in the current directory 
#(This fails to ignore files without a ".", for example 
#'file.txt' works, but 
#'file' doesn't):
*.*

#Only Include these specific directories and subdirectories:
!wordpress/
!wordpress/*/
!wordpress/*/wp-content/
!wordpress/*/wp-content/themes/
!wordpress/*/wp-content/themes/*
!wordpress/*/wp-content/themes/*/*
!wordpress/*/wp-content/themes/*/*/*
!wordpress/*/wp-content/themes/*/*/*/*
!wordpress/*/wp-content/themes/*/*/*/*/*
