How to delete a file from a Git repository, but not other users' working copies

Suppose you have, by mistake, added your IDE's project folder (you know, these .idea folders with all kinds of local paths and configuration data and settings in it) to the Git repository of your project. (We're talking about a whole folder here, but the same rules apply to individual files as well.)

Of course, you only realize that two days after the fact and have already pushed it, and your colleagues have already pulled it. They use the same IDE as you do, so whenever they change a setting or fix paths, they can either

commit that, causing nasty merge conflicts for you and others or
ignore the changes and carry around a modified file until the end of time without ever committing it.

Why .gitignore won't help

All You Zombies

2217 Time Zone V (EST) 7 Nov. 1970--NTC-- "Pop's Place": I was polishing a brandy snifter when the Unmarried Mother came in. I noted the time---10:17 P. M. zone five, or eastern time, November 7th, 1970. Temporal agents always notice time and date; we must.

The Unmarried Mother was a man twenty--five years old, no taller than I am, childish features and a touchy temper. I didn't like his looks---I never had---but he was a lad I was here to recruit, he was my boy. I gave him my best barkeep's smile.

Maybe I'm too critical. He wasn't swish; his nickname came from what he always said when some nosy type asked him his line: "I'm an unmarried mother." If he felt less than murderous he would add: "at four cents a word. I write confession stories."

If he felt nasty, he would wait for somebody to make something of it. He had a lethal style of infighting, like a female cop---reason I wanted him. Not the only one.

	Simple script illustrating how to perform embarrassingly parallel computations
	in Python using MPI/mpi4py. I like this approach a lot as its very easy to get
	right without having to deal with the complications arising from forked
	processes which the multiprocessing module uses.

	This script can be executed with or without `mpirun`; it will just run on one
	core if not executed with it. With some more logic its also possible to make

	# views.py
	from myproject.myfunctions import upload_profile_picture


	def profile_picture(request):
	# setup (checking for post, checking if the
	# user is authenticated, etc.)
	user = request.user
	pic_file = request.FILES['profile_picture']
	result_url = upload_profile_picture(pic_file)
