git .gitignore?

I didn’t know how to tell git to except a file from the ignore. Like your code creates a bunch of .txt files and you don’t want to commit them and clutter your repo. But you need a certain .txt file to be included into that repo.
Add a .gitignore file that looks like this:

*.txt
!LICENSE.txt

Important is to call the !LICENSE.txt after the *.txt call. Or the .gitignore won’t recognize the excepted file.
