Re: .gitignore behavior on Mac

But I just don't want to see that darn file. It is a config file that
I have changed, and I don't want to need to stash it for each "git
svn" action I want to perform... Any solution for that?

Shouldn't this be valid? I would expect to NOT see the
core/inc/config.inc.php in the "git status" output...

core/inc/config.inc.php is already in the repository.  Git won't ignore
files that are already tracked.

If you remove the file from the index:

    git rm --cached core/inc/config.inc.php

then you'll see it as deleted in "git status" but it won't appear in the
untracked files section even though it's still there in the working
tree.
