# Ignore

Are there files in your project that you don't want to version control? \
If so, use the Ignore command. You can make them no longer appear when the Status command is run.&#x20;

Click the **'Settings'** button in the top right corner of **Left Layout > Source Code Management** and select the **ignore** management tab.

Specify the files you don't want Git to track here.

The Ignore command is good for things like error logs or automatically generated files. \
However, **if a file is already versioned by Git (if it has been added to the repository), it will not be ignored.** Git already knows about it, so it can't ignore it.
