Thanks. very useful. if any directory is already staged, then you can use the following command to remove all the staged files under that directory.

git rm --cached -rf .idea

Very helpful, thanks!

Thank you! :)

Клёво, клёво, клёво

Hi,

Not sure if there is something wrong but when I applied this gitignore file, all xml files in the project is ignored as well. Anyone got same issue or know how to solve it?

Thanks.

Thank you :D

thanks you so much

thank you. I also think /*/build/ should be **/build/

thanks @salouri you save my time

thanks, this is really saving my time:)

.gitignore you must create in root folder.
Change view from Android -> Project and in MyAppFolder create .gitignore.

Thanks for this post. it helped.

I am facing the same problem nowadays. Do you find a solution?

Thanks, This helps

I know this sounds stupid but where do I put/find my .gitignore file in Android Studio? :(

In your root folder of Project

The iml pattern should be like this: /*/*.iml for every library

Nice, thanks!!

Awesome, thanks

Thank you

Is this up to date?

I used git rm -r --cached ./
reset all committed files to start over with Git.

👍

Thank you

amazing. thank you

hi this file is not working for me

Thanks. This works very well
