So "file" is no longer ignored.  Committing the .gitignore change
doesn't change that:

  $ git add .gitignore
  $ git commit -m 2nd
  [master d4c95a1] 2nd
   1 file changed, 1 deletion(-)
  $ git status
  On branch master
  Untracked files:
    (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
  	file

  nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

Which steps did you take to arrive at a different result?

Perhaps also:

  git check-ignore -v file

would be helpful for seeing why Git thinks it might be ignored (e.g.,
another wildcard rule that happens to match it).

Right.  And there is more than one possible place to specify files to be
ignored.  E.g. you can use info/exclude in your Git directory (i.e.
.git/info/exclude by default) for repository-specific patterns don't
want to share.  See https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore or the manpage
of gitignore(5) for more details.
