    slnx.sqlite

    /.vs/*.sqlite
    .vs/*.sqlite`

回答1:

it's showing up as uncommitted? If that's the case then adding it to .gitignore changes nothing because .gitignore only works for untracked files (files that git hasn't been tracking so far.... if a file has already been committed on a previous revision [and therefore is part of HEAD] then .gitignore changes nothing).... so, two approaches are to be followed:

Keep the file on the project but specifically ask git to not care if it changes. Then you can do git update-index --assume-unchanged somefile
Remove the file from the history of the branch. This is quite a different endeavor and requires rewriting the history of the branch (or branches) Completely remove file from all Git repository commit history

Just keep that in mind that those files stores some local user settings and preferences for projects (like what files you had open). So every time you navigate or do some changes in your IDE, that file is changed and therefore it checks it out and show as there are uncommitted changes.

For the slnx.sqlite, I just got rid off it completely like following:

git rm {PATH_OF_THE_FILE}/slnx.sqlite -f
git commit -m "remove slnx.sqlite"

You probably have the file staged. (Please post the results of git status to clarify the exact problem). Try git reset <filePath>. If that doesn't work, the file might have been committed previously and you could try git rm --cached <filePath>.

回答4:

You see the file in uncommitted changes because that file is already committed in Git repository and on a local build it has some changes again which shows up in uncommitted changed.

To avoid this delete the file from local repo and push the changes to git server repo. gitignore works for only new files which are not yet in git repo.

Thanks
