git-ignore misses

[Stas Sușcov]

Binary package hint: git-core

No gitignore tool in current jaunty repositories!!!

Please add gitignore tool:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gitignore.html

There is no “gitignore” or “git-ignore” tool. You just create a text file named “.gitignore” or “.git/info/exclude” in your Git clone with a list of files to ignore, one per line. See the SYNPOSIS section of the documentation that you linked to.

Ok, then what I'm doing wrong?

I can't make it in any way to leave some files untracked...

P.S.: Should I move it to Answers/Questions section?
