Ignoring files & folders

GitBook will read the .gitignore, .bookignore and .ignore files to get a list of files and folders to skip.

The format inside those files, follows the same convention as .gitignore:

  1. # This is a comment
  2. # Ignore the file test.md
  3. test.md
  4. # Ignore everything in the directory "bin"
  5. bin/*
