    `.gitignore` applies to every clone of this repository (versioned, everyone will have it),

    `.git/info/exclude` only applies to your local copy of this repository (local, not shared with others),

    `~/.gitconfig` applies to all the repositories on your computer (local, not shared with others).

    #### Git untrack the file

    The series of commands below will remove all of the items from the Git Index (not from the working directory or local repo), and then updates the Git Index, while respecting git ignores. PS. Index = Cache

    First:

    ```bash
    git rm -r --cached .
    git add .
    ```

    Then:

    ```bash
    git commit -am "Remove ignored files"
    ```
