5git alone will not change the content of your `.gitignore` file. Try to isolate the step that edits your file – LeGEC May 04 '21 at 21:16

4I'm curious as to what you mean by "after compilation". Git does not have a compilation step, and a `.gitignore` file does not get compiled by any compiler I know of. – torek May 05 '21 at 01:35

I meant after compiling a program on microfocus the .gitignore file is updated with /bin/ – veera venkata ramesh chode May 05 '21 at 19:40

Found these settings on microfocus Enterprise Developer :
Windows -> Preferences -> Team - Git -> Projects -> "Automatically ignore derived resources by adding them to .gitignore"
After removing or unchecking the line, it stopped updating /bin/ line on gitignore

If the microfocus compiler is somehow changing the main .gitignore, see if adding a .gitignore in bin/ itself would help, with the content
!./
The alternative would be to wrap the compiler call with a script which would:
- save the
.gitignorecontent - call the compiler
- then restore the
.gitignorecontent.
