SublimeMerge: Ignoring global git config, at least its excludeFiles

#21

For now the dev builds are available to everyone whether they have a license or not, so you should be able to give it a try. There have been some changes in recent builds regarding the git config file, so possibly this may be fixed now.

It’s still not working for me. My global gitignore is located in:

~/.config/git/ignore

It is the default location for global ignore file according to this:

https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore

It is a symlink if that matters.

This was fixed in dev build 1063, and the fix is now in stable build 1065

I’m having the same issue on the latest build or the dev build 1085. SM is listing untracked files that are not shown when executing git status in the terminal.
In my ~/.gitignore I ignore .history

=== Git Status Information ===

=== Our Status Information ===
?? .history/.gitignore_20181005155834

When I try to delete or stage them via SM interface I get an error telling me that the following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore.

@towane If you can create an issue at https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_merge/issues, and include a couple of other details, such as your platform and the full Debug Information output, then we’ll be able to get it sorted.
