Can't ignore UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate

Git is probably already tracking the file.

From the gitignore docs:

To stop tracking a file that is currently tracked, use git rm --cached.

Use this, replacing [project] and [username] with your info:

git rm --cached [project].xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace/xcuserdata/[username].xcuserdatad/UserInterfaceState.xcuserstategit commit -m "Removed file that shouldn't be tracked"

Alternatively you can use the -a option to git commit that will add all files that have been modified or deleted.

Once you've removed the file from git, it will respect your .gitignore.

In case that the ignored file kept showing up in the untracked list, you may use git clean -f -dto clear things up.

1.

git rm --cached {YourProjectFolderName}.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace/xcuserdata/{yourUserName}.xcuserdatad/UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate

2.

git commit -m "Removed file that shouldn't be tracked"

3. WARNING first try git clean -f -d --dry-run, otherwise you may lose uncommited changes.

Then: git clean -f -d

All Answer is great but here is the one will remove for every user if you work in different Mac (Home and office)

git rm --cache */UserInterfaceState.xcuserstategit commit -m "Never see you again, UserInterfaceState"
