这是另一个遍历目录结构以获得所需内容的示例。注意:我没有排除Library/，而是排除Library/**/*

# .gitignore file
Library/**/*
!Library/Application Support/
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/*macro
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/*snippet
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/*settings
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/*keymap
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/*theme
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/**/
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/**/*macro
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/**/*snippet
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/**/*settings
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/**/*keymap
!Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/**/*theme

最简单也可能是最好的方法是手动添加文件(通常这优先于.gitignore风格的规则):

git add /path/to/module

如果文件已经被忽略，则可能需要-f。您甚至可能希望使用-N意图添加标志，以建议您将添加它们，但不是立即添加。我经常对我还没有准备好的新文件这样做。

这是一个答案的副本张贴在什么很容易是一个重复的QA。我在这里重新发布是为了增加能见度——我发现不搞乱gitignore规则更容易。

添加一个名为.gitignore的文件到子文件夹，然后填充

!/Bin/

这对我很管用!

@Chris Johnsen的回答很好，但在Git的新版本(1.8.2或更高版本)中，有一个双星号模式，你可以利用它来获得更简洁的解决方案:

# assuming the root folder you want to ignore is 'application'
application/**/*

# the subfolder(s) you want to track:
!application/language/gr/

这样你就不必“取消忽略”你想要跟踪的子文件夹的父目录。

Git 2.17.0(不知道在这个版本之前有多早。可能回到1.8.2)，使用**模式结合排除法对指向您的文件的每个子目录有效。例如:

# assuming the root folder you want to ignore is 'application'
application/**

# Explicitly track certain content nested in the 'application' folder:
!application/language/
!application/language/gr/
!application/language/gr/** # Example adding all files & folder in the 'gr' folder
!application/language/gr/SomeFile.txt # Example adding specific file in the 'gr' folder

我想跟踪位于/etc/nagios/中的Nagios配置文件以及/usr/lib64/ Nagios /plugins/中的插件。为此，我在/中初始化了一个git repo，并使用了以下排除列表:

/*
!etc
etc/*
!etc/nagios
!usr
usr/*
!usr/lib64
usr/lib64/*
!usr/lib64/nagios
usr/lib64/nagios/*
!usr/lib64/nagios/plugins

Git像这样遍历列表:

/*             exclude everything under / ...
!etc           but include /etc back
etc/*             exclude everything under /etc/...
!etc/nagios       but include /etc/nagios back
!usr           but include /usr back
usr/*             exclude everything under /usr/...
                  and so on...

因为很多程序员使用node。满足这个问题的用例是排除node_modules，除了一个模块module-a，例如:

!node_modules/

node_modules/*
!node_modules/module-a/
