Can I tell git to ignore files that are modified (deleted) but should not be committed?
The situation is that I have a subdirectory in the repo which contains stuff I’m not interested in at all, so I deleted it to prevent it showing up in auto-completions and the like (in the IDE).
But now, if I add that folder to .gitignore, simply nothing changes, all the stuff is shown as deleted by git status.
Is there a way to make git ignore it either way?
(Alternatively, as I’m using git-svn, could I commit the changes to the local git and ensure they are not passed on to the svn repo?)
