# NEVER run "git rm -r --cached .", it will reinitialize your whole project.
# just remove the destination file/folder instead of removing all folder and file.
# for example:
# 	if you recently adding "/public/js/app.js" in your .gitignore file,
#	just run "git rm -r --cached .\public\js\app.js", and then "git commit ..."
#	don't be a lazy people.
#
# trust me, i have a bad day after running "git rm -r --cached ." command.

git rm -r --cached .\path\to\<your_file.extension>
git commit -am "Commit Message"
