.gitignore two or more extensions file

Question

I have the next files in my local repository:

app.component.js core.component.js core.service.local.js core.service.power.ts

My question is very simple, How can I do to ignore the files with the extension .component.js and .service.local.js and other, I mean any file to end with .Any_String.ext

Use a wild character '*'. Example *.component.js

This is valid for the shown examples, but the question is how to ignore when the last two "words" in the filename are not known. (i.e. ".Any_String.ext" as show at the end of the question) – Dan Lowe Jun 08 '17 at 14:28

The easiest way is to add these to your .gitignore file.

use this command to stop tracking the specific file

git rm --cached .

or

In this case you can stop tracking the below file.

git rm --cached public/app/core.service.local.js

or

Add these in your gitignore file. I'm not sure you want to skip all files with *.component.js or just only these 4 files.

app.component.js
core.component.js
core.service.local.js
core.service.power.ts

Or use wildcard representation and make sure you ignore unwanted files only.
