Intellij ignore feature gone
Answered
Hi,
before there was the build-in intellij feature of ignoring files or even folders - without it having to do anything with vcs, so the information is stored into your project itself.
After an update I cannot find this feature anymore.
Can someone help me finding this feature again? Is it gone through an update or is it hidden in some plugin I might noch have installed anymore?
Help is highly appreciated...

Hello,
In 2019.2 the built-in Ignored Files list has been dropped in favor of native ignore files: https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2019/07/support-for-vcs-ignores-in-intellij-idea-and-intellij-based-ides/
HIi Yaroslav Bedrov,
thank you for the answer.
that is a really annoying change, as I ignored files locally that none in my company needs, so it is not in the .gitignore list!
But yeah I guess I have to live with that... :(

You can still do this using .git/info/exclude file. See https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore for more details.
We'll add an action to add files to the local ignore files - see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-219087
Hi, sorry I didn't get a notification somehow.
That is a nice feature, thank you so much for sharing this with me.
Do you know in which version this will be released? Unfortunately it doesn't say in the ticket
Many thanks
It will be added in 2019.3 version. You could try EAP: https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/nextversion/
Yaroslav Bedrov Many thanks, I tried it and it works beautifully :)
