我知道这是一个旧的帖子，但对于新老谁访问这个页面，有一个网站叫gitignore。IO可以生成这些文件。登陆网站时搜索“visualstudio”，它会为你生成这些文件，你也可以忽略多个语言/ide的文件连接到一个文档中。

美丽。

这要归功于Jens Lehmann——如果你保持源目录与编译器项目文件分开，并构建输出，你可以通过否定它来简化你的.gitignore:

path/to/build/directory/*
!*.sln
!*.vcproj

你没有说你正在使用什么语言，但以上这些应该适用于c++项目。

有一个在线工具可以让你根据你的操作系统、IDE、语言等生成。gitignore文件。看看http://www.gitignore.io/。

在2014年8月20日，这是为Visual Studio + Windows生成的文件。

这是我最近在做的一个项目的。gitignore的摘录。我提取了我认为与Visual Studio相关的内容，包括编译输出;这是一个跨平台的项目，所以对于其他构建系统产生的文件有各种其他的忽略规则，我不能保证我准确地将它们分开。

*.dll
*.exe
*.exp
*.ilk
*.lib
*.ncb
*.log
*.pdb
*.vcproj.*.user
[Dd]ebug
[Rr]elease

也许这个问题应该是Community Wiki，这样我们就可以一起编辑一个带有注释的主列表，说明对于哪种类型的项目哪些文件应该被忽略?

对于那些对微软认为应该包含在gitignore中感兴趣的人，这里是Visual Studio 2013 RTM在创建一个新的Git-Repository时自动生成的默认gitignore:

## Ignore Visual Studio temporary files, build results, and
## files generated by popular Visual Studio add-ons.
