Re: [Condor-devel] What to do with .gitignore?

[Erik Erlandson <eje@xxxxxxxxxx>]

At some point I gave up on .gitignore, and did this:

[alias]
	stat = !git status | awk '/ntracked files/ { exit } /.*/ { print $0 }'

which outputs what I generally consider the 'useful' stuff like branch, altered files, new files, deleted files, etc, and then skips the long list of untracked files that I mostly consider noise:

$ git stat
# On branch uw/master
