How to use gitignore in Pycharm?


Try:

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Go to Plugins
  3. Search for: .ignore
  4. Install
  5. Restart PyCharm

.gitignore should now be included in .ignore along with .hgignore etc.


In PyCharm Pro 2019.3, I was able to do this by - right click folder or file I wanted to add to gitignore.- scroll to and click on Git- scroll to and click on Add to .gitignoreIf a gitignore file is not already there, PyCharm will create one and add it to the main project folder and add your chosen folder/file to it.


There are plugins available in the JetBrains repository to manage this; one of them that I make use of is .ignore, which allows you to have more insight into what files you're actually ignoring in the IDE.
