Different Ways to Ignore Files Using GitHub Desktop
Manually Add Folders and Files to .gitignore from GitHub Desktop Changes Section:
Navigate to the Changes tab in GitHub Desktop.
Identify the files or folders you want to ignore.
Right-click on the file or folder and select Ignore this file or Ignore this directory.
GitHub Desktop automatically adds the file or folder to the .gitignore file.
Now do some changes in fileA and FileB and observe the behavior.
Edit .gitignore File Using GitHub Desktop Repository Settings:
Open the repository in GitHub Desktop.
Go to Repository > Repository Settings.
Under the Git Ignore section, edit the .gitignore file by adding file or folder patterns that should be ignored.
Save the changes, and the .gitignore file will be updated.
Manually Edit the .gitignore File (Not GitHub Desktop Specific):
Open the repository folder on your local machine.
Locate the .gitignore file (or create one if it doesn’t exist).
Open the file in a text editor and manually add the file or folder patterns to be ignored.
Save the .gitignore file.
