While checkout to master branch, I got:
Error: The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by checkout: nbproject/private/config.properties nbproject/private/private.properties nbproject/private/private.xml nbproject/project.properties nbproject/project.xml Please move or remove them before you can switch branches. Aborting So I have remove them (I've backup those files somewhere else outside the repo), and I was able to switch again. The reason I've getting this it's because: dev is ignoring those files. master isn't, because no .gitignore file is present there. Perhaps, when I was setting branches, I forgot it somehow... They should both ignore those files. Plus, when I push this to remote repos, those changes should be propagated for those remote repos as well. (I'm using a bare repo). My question is: *How can we add that .gitignore file to the master, so that this doesn't happen again ?* ** ** Thanks in advance,* * -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
