My question is as follows: I am working on one public project on GitHub. That project is being developed in Visual Studio *2012*. I am using Visual Studio *2013*. These 2 IDEs are mostly compatible, except the latter adds couple of lines to solution file, thus making it VS2013 file, still preserving compatibility with older versions. My usual working flow is to open the solution (and it will update the solution file), write some code, save changes to my files. Close the IDE. Revert changes to solution file. And commit, at last. Basically, I'd like to remove 2 unneeded steps from my working flow: updating solution file, reverting it back. Is there a way to tell GIT that after upgrading the solution file I don't want it to concider this change as one that needs to be added to the commit? Something like: GIT knows that there are couple of lines in one file that are only used by me and don't need to be commited. Hence IDE won't upgrade this file anymore, and I don't have to revert it each time I commit. Any ideas? Try --assume-unchanged with git update-index: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-update-index.html I'm not sure if it will handle things gracefully when you pull and others have made changes in the solution file. Probably you will get a conflict that you have to resolve. You could work around that doing something like this, I suppose: http://stackoverflow.com/a/930495/266875 - or just resolve it manually. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.
