git check-ignore

Analyze and debug Git ignore / exclude (".gitignore") files. More information: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-check-ignore.

• Check whether a file or directory is ignored:
   
  git check-ignore {{path/to/file_or_directory}}
   
• Check whether multiple files or directories are ignored:
   
  git check-ignore {{path/to/file}} {{path/to/directory}}
   
• Use pathnames, one per line, from stdin:
   
  git check-ignore --stdin < {{path/to/file_list}}
   
• Do not check the index (used to debug why paths were tracked and not ignored):
   
  git check-ignore --no-index {{path/to/files_or_directories}}
   
• Include details about the matching pattern for each path:
   
  git check-ignore --verbose {{path/to/files_or_directories}}
