<h2 id="the-problem">The Problem</h2>
<p>You&rsquo;ve added a file or directory to your <code>.gitignore</code>, but Git still tracks it. You might be thinking, &ldquo;Hey Git, I told you to ignore this!&rdquo;</p>
<h2 id="why-it-happens">Why It Happens</h2>
<p>Here&rsquo;s the catch: the <code>.gitignore</code> file only prevents untracked files from being added to the set of tracked files. It doesn&rsquo;t magically remove files that are already being tracked by Git.</p></p>
