我明白这是一个老问题，还在分享一个信息。在Visual Studio 2017中，只需右键单击解决方案文件，并选择将解决方案添加到源代码控制

这将向源文件夹中添加两个文件。

.gitattributes .gitignore

这是最简单的方法。

在Visual Studio中有一个快捷方式，因为它在2015年及以上版本支持Git开箱即用。对于新的解决方案(或一些没有.git文件夹的解决方案)，使用解决方案资源管理器中的源代码控制功能:

右键单击解决方案并选择将解决方案添加到源代码控制…弹出菜单中的项目。

它会自动初始化.git存储库，将.gitignore和必要的东西添加到您的解决方案，甚至是.gitattributes文件(行结束符等)。

文本将出现在VS控制台:

A new Git repository has been created for you in C:\<path to your solution>
Commit ______ created locally in repository.

完成了!

为构建部署添加了InstallShield忽略。InstallShield是微软在Visual Studio Installer上的新方向，所以我们已经开始在所有新项目中使用它。添加的这一行删除了SingleImage安装文件。其他InstallShield类型可能包括DVD分发。您可能希望添加这些目录名或仅仅添加[Ee]xpress/以防止任何InstallShield LE部署文件进入repo。

下面是我们的.gitignore，用于VS2010 c#项目，使用安装盾LE和安装程序的SingleImage部署:

使用Visual Studio添加.gitignore

打开Visual Studio和需要忽略文件的解决方案。从顶部菜单选择Git > Settings。

上面将打开Visual Studio的选项，选择源代码控制> Git全局设置。从左侧列表中选择Git Repository Settings，然后单击“忽略文件”的“添加”按钮。

上面的代码将添加(并提交)一个.gitignore文件，其中包含典型Visual Studio设置中忽略的所有适当文件。

https://elanderson.net/2020/10/add-git-ignore-to-an-existing-visual-studio-solution-new-git-experience/

注意，如果你的repo根目录中已经有一个.gitignore文件，“添加”按钮将显示“编辑”，按下该按钮将只是打开文件而不更新它，这不是很有帮助。在这种情况下，您可以首先重命名您的.gitignore文件，单击Add按钮，取消新的.gitignore文件，然后按照您喜欢的方式合并保存的副本更改。

下面是我在。net项目中为我的.gitignore文件所使用的。

[Oo]bj/
[Bb]in/
*.suo
*.user
/TestResults
*.vspscc
*.vssscc

这几乎是一个全MS的方法，它使用内置的Visual Studio测试器，并且一个项目也可能有一些TFS绑定。
