It will be useful to have a git repository to experiment with as you
read this manual.
The best way to get one is by using the gitlink:git-clone[1] command
to download a copy of an existing repository for a project that you
are interested in. If you don't already have a project in mind, here
are some interesting examples:

Git is best thought of as a tool for storing the history of a collection

interrelated snapshots of the project's contents. In git each such
version is called a <<def_commit,commit>>.
A single git repository may contain multiple branches. It keeps track
of them by keeping a list of <<def_head,heads>> which reference the
latest version on each branch; the gitlink:git-branch[1] command shows
latest commit on each branch; the gitlink:git-branch[1] command shows

[XFRM]: Fix aevent structuring to be more complete.
Remove duplicate getenv(DB_ENVIRONMENT) call
aevents can not uniquely identify an SA. We break the ABI with this
patch, but consensus is that since it is not yet utilized by any
(known) application then it is fine (better do it now than later).

is just a matter of 'not' calling "`git add`" on them. But it quickly becomes
annoying to have these untracked files lying around; e.g. they make
"`git add .`" and "`git commit -a`" practically useless, and they keep
showing up in the output of "`git status`", etc.
showing up in the output of "`git status`".
Git therefore provides "exclude patterns" for telling git which files to
actively ignore. Exclude patterns are thoroughly explained in the
gitlink:gitignore[5] manual page, but the heart of the concept is simply
a list of files which git should ignore. Entries in the list may contain
globs to specify multiple files, or may be prefixed by "`!`" to
explicitly include (un-ignore) a previously excluded (ignored) file
(i.e. later exclude patterns override earlier ones). The following
example should illustrate such patterns:
You can tell git to ignore certain files by creating a file called .gitignore
in the top level of your working directory, with contents such as:
-------------------------------------------------
# Lines starting with '#' are considered comments.
# Ignore foo.txt.
# Ignore any file named foo.txt.
foo.txt
# Ignore (generated) html files,
*.html
@ -1128,41 +1113,20 @@ foo.txt

-------------------------------------------------
The next question is where to put these exclude patterns so that git can
find them. Git looks for exclude patterns in the following files:
See gitlink:gitignore[5] for a detailed explanation of the syntax. You can
also place .gitignore files in other directories in your working tree, and they
will apply to those directories and their subdirectories. The `.gitignore`
files can be added to your repository like any other files (just run `git add
.gitignore` and `git commit`, as usual), which is convenient when the exclude
patterns (such as patterns matching build output files) would also make sense
for other users who clone your repository.
`.gitignore` files in your working tree:::
You may store multiple `.gitignore` files at various locations in your
working tree. Each `.gitignore` file is applied to the directory where
it's located, including its subdirectories. Furthermore, the
`.gitignore` files can be tracked like any other files in your working
tree; just do a "`git add .gitignore`" and commit. `.gitignore` is
therefore the right place to put exclude patterns that are meant to
be shared between all project participants, such as build output files
(e.g. `\*.o`), etc.
`.git/info/exclude` in your repo:::
Exclude patterns in this file are applied to the working tree as a
whole. Since the file is not located in your working tree, it does
not follow push/pull/clone like `.gitignore` can do. This is therefore
the place to put exclude patterns that are local to your copy of the
repo (i.e. 'not' shared between project participants), such as
temporary backup files made by your editor (e.g. `\*~`), etc.
The file specified by the `core.excludesfile` config directive:::
By setting the `core.excludesfile` config directive you can tell git
where to find more exclude patterns (see gitlink:git-config[1] for
more information on configuration options). This config directive
can be set in the per-repo `.git/config` file, in which case the
exclude patterns will apply to that repo only. Alternatively, you
can set the directive in the global `~/.gitconfig` file to apply
the exclude pattern to all your git repos. As with the above
`.git/info/exclude` (and, indeed, with git config directives in
general), this directive does not follow push/pull/clone, but remain
local to your repo(s).
[NOTE]
In addition to the above alternatives, there are git commands that can take
exclude patterns directly on the command line. See gitlink:git-ls-files[1]
for an example of this.
If you wish the exclude patterns to affect only certain repositories
(instead of every repository for a given project), you may instead put
them in a file in your repository named .git/info/exclude, or in any file
specified by the `core.excludesfile` configuration variable. Some git
commands can also take exclude patterns directly on the command line.
See gitlink:gitignore[5] for the details.
