# gitig - Simple gitignore management
[](https://drone.schneider-hosting.de/schneider/gitig)
`gitig` helps you to manage your .gitignore files more easily.
When starting a new project, `gitig` will be there for you to download an
example gitignore file for your project [from GitHub](https://github.com/github/gitignore).
Check `gitig list-templates` to find all available templates and download it
with `gitig get {template}`.
During the project there will be always some files, which need to be ignored.
Don't waste time with opening .gitignore in your editor and add a line there,
just `gitig add {file}` and you're done. When ignoring concrete files, your
shell will be there for you to complete the full filename.
