How to stop git from tracking all a folder(.vscode) and everything inside it.

Git is init in root say RootFolder which contain multiple projects say P1, P2 and so on and each project folder has .vscode folder. I have tried this from RootFolder git rm --cached -r .vscode/ But it says fatal: pathspec '.vscode/' did not match any files However it works from parent folders i.e. P1, P2, etc. And I have got hundreds of them.

1. Add .vscode to your .gitignore 2. git rm -r --cached . 3. git add .

because there is no .vscode in the root you could do what @ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ said, or alternatively git rm --cached */.vscode
