+ [2019-04-21T04:42:12Z] i-make-robots what is the correct way to remove a file from a repo so that it never existed? I have a log file that was accidentally committed long ago. tho i put it in .gitignore it keeps tracking. I tried a few methods found on google and none have worked yet.

+ [2019-04-21T22:41:21Z] deltab git rm --cached to stop tracking it while keeping it in the work tree; however if will still get overwritten if you check out an older version
