执行 Git 推送 Laravel 时不包含存储链接

Question

I just have done a git push in our online repo

When I checked the online repo and checked the public folder it shows this:

while in my local repo I have this in my public folder:

My local has Storage folder from my storage link. I am guessing that this has something to do with the .gitignore inside my local public folder. It contains:

*
!.gitignore

Same goes with my storage folders. In our Online repo inside storage/app/public :

while in my local storage folder:

user_images is present in my local repo. Here is the inner .gitignore :

*
!.gitignore

and the outer .gitigore :

*
!public/
!.gitignore

I am not quite familiar with setting rules in .gitignore . I wish to make sure that whatever my local Storage and public folder has, the Online repo has as well. How should I go about in doing this?

Kindly edit my tags if it is misleading or incorrect. Thank you.

This is the content of the root .gitignore :

/node_modules
/public/hot
/public/storage
/storage/*.key
/vendor
.env
.phpunit.result.cache
Homestead.json
Homestead.yaml
npm-debug.log
yarn-error.log

I have removed /public/storage in .gitignored and tried to do a git push

Changes not staged for commit:
        modified:   .gitignore

and still, nothing is the same from my local to Online repo? Anything I might have missed?

Tried running git check-ignore -v path/to/file

In my root .gitignore :

/node_modules
/public/hot
/public/storage
/storage/*.key
/vendor
.env
.phpunit.result.cache
Homestead.json
Homestead.yaml
npm-debug.log
yarn-error.log

If I ran git check-ignore -v public/hot , it replies with .gitignore:2:/public/hot public/hot but if I ran git check-ignore -v public/storage , it doesn't respond with anything which it should because it is included in root .gitignore I come to believe that this situation made it impossible for the public/storage/user_images and storage/app/public/user_images . Any help is needed.

I may have been viewing a wrong file or path all this time. But I can confirm that @VonC method helped me do a proper exclusion in gitignore . Thanks.

EDIT:

Final gitignores so far

root .gitignore :

/node_modules
# /public/hot
# /public/storage
/storage/*.key
/vendor
.env
.phpunit.result.cache
Homestead.json
Homestead.yaml
npm-debug.log
yarn-error.log

storage\\app.gitignore

# *
# !public/
!.gitignore

storage\\app\\public.gitignore

# *
!.gitignore

public\\storage.gitignore

# *
!.gitignore

Just an additional info:

git check-ignore -v vendor gives .gitignore:5:/vendor vendor

while git check-ignore -v /vendor gives fatal: C:/Program Files/Git/vendor: 'C:/Program Files/Git/vendor' is outside repository

I'm not sure where git check-ignore -v path points to.

Answer 1

First, for any file ignore within a folder, type:

git check-ignore -v -- path/to/file

That will display exactly which .gitignore is responsible for ignoring said file.

Second, the rule of gitignore is simple:

It is not possible to re-include a file if a parent directory of that file is excluded.

To exclude files (or all files) from a subfolder of an ignored folder f , you would do:

f/**
!f/**/
!f/a/sub/folder/someFile.txt

Meaning: you need to whitelist folders first, before being able to exclude from gitignore files .

对于那些可能仍在寻找答案的人，请编辑 storage/app 和 storage/app/public 文件夹中的 .gitignore 文件，并从每个文件夹中删除前 2 行。
