From 936d2c9301e41a84a374b98f92777e00d321a2ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael J Gruber Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2014 12:13:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] gitignore.txt: do not suggest assume-unchanged git-update-index --assume-unchanged was never meant to ignore changes to tracked files (only to spare some stats). So do not suggest it as a means to achieve that.
