英文:
Git not ignoring an new untracked file even though it is in .gitignore
问题
.gitignore 文件似乎没有按预期工作。您可以尝试以下步骤来解决问题：
-
确保 .gitignore 文件位于您的仓库根目录中。
-
检查 .gitignore 文件的内容，确保您正确地添加了要忽略的文件模式。在这种情况下，您希望忽略所有的 .txt 文件，您可以在 .gitignore 中添加以下内容：
*.txt
- 确保 .gitignore 文件已经被提交到仓库中。您可以运行以下命令来检查：
git add .gitignore
git commit -m "Add .gitignore file"
- 如果仍然遇到问题，您可以尝试清除 Git 缓存，然后再次运行 git status：
git rm -r --cached .
git add .
这应该解决 .gitignore 文件不起作用的问题。如果问题仍然存在，请确保您的 Git 版本足够新，因为旧版本可能会导致问题。希望这可以帮助您解决问题。
英文:
Hi I'm a beginner to Git and am not sure why .gitignore is not working for me when I create new files. I've seen that Git will continue to track files that had previously been staged/committed in the repo but these are NEW untracked files so shouldn't they be ignored. Please help, thanks!
>>> echo hello > file1.txt
>>> echo file1.txt > .gitignore
>>> git status
On branch master
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
.gitignore
file1.txt
Tried to debug by checking git ls-files and double checking the .gitignore contents. However, all seems non-problematic so I'm not sure why the file is not ignored.
I tried adding *.txt in .gitignore too to no avail
I used git check-ignore which returns me nothing, so it suggests that the .gitignore is not implemented properly?

这是你要求的翻译：
原来你的问题是另一个“gitignore 是 UTF-16 编码”的问题，这在 Windows 上可能会发生。
如何发现它？
一种方法是打开 git-bash 并使用 file 实用程序：
$ file .gitignore
.gitignore: Unicode text, UTF-16, little-endian text
或者在支持编码的编辑器中打开你的 .gitignore 文件（例如 Notepad++ 或 VSCode），查看编辑器检测到的格式。
如何修复它？
从命令行，你可以在 git-bash shell 中使用 iconv：
iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 .gitignore -o .gitignore
或者在支持编码的编辑器中，将文件的编码从 UTF-16 转换为 UTF-8。
英文:
It turns out your issue was another instance of the "gitignore is in UTF-16" issue, which can happen on Windows.
How can I spot it ?
One way is to open git-bash and use the file utility:
$ file .gitignore
.gitignore: Unicode text, UTF-16, little-endian text
or open your .gitignore file in an encoding aware editor (notepad++ or vscode for example) and look at the format detected by the editor.
How can I fix it ?
From the command line, you can use iconv from a git-bash shell:
iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 .gitignore -o .gitignore
or from an encoding aware editor, convert the encoding of that file from UTF-16 to UTF-8.
