Thanks Taher and Mathieu for trying to somehow help ;)
As those were not real answers to my question and I got some time to spend I
looked for a Git solution
Actually I already use the ignore-on-commit ToirtoiseGit solution for my other specific added files (mostly *.bat shortcuts):
https://tortoisegit.org/docs/tortoisegit/tgit-dug-changelists.html. I use it for years in ToirtoiseSvn, Toirtoise* tools are terrific :)
But it's not satisfying for .gitignore, because I don't want to ignore .gitignore but to prevent ToirtoiseGit to put /gradle/ in it (why it does that
is still a mystery to me, must be a reason...)
So I discovered[1][2] .git/info/exclude and I guess it's OK with me (still have
to try)

Hi,
As you may know I'm mostly on Windows and I use ToirtoiseGit to handle things,
and in a lesser way Git Bash and eGit (Eclipse plugin).
There is something which is annoying me with ToirtoiseGit. I don't know why but it keeps
adding "/gradle/" in .gitignore.
I want to push it, but before I'd like your opinions.
Thanks
Jacques
