Untracked files

Example, add folders and files.

 
$ git init

$ mkdir controllers
$ cd controllers/
$ touch controller.php

$ cd ..

$ mkdir models
$ cd models/
$ touch model.php

$ cd ..

$ mkdir logs
$ cd logs
$ touch log.txt

$ cd ..

Untracked files

 
$ git status

# Untracked files:
#
#       controllers/
#       logs/
#       models/

Git ignore, exclude files logs/ will be excluded from commit.

 
$ echo logs/ > .git/info/exclude

$ echo build/* > .gitignore

Show untracked files

 
$ git status

# On branch master
#
# Untracked files:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#       controllers/
#       models/

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "m"

Forget about a file that was trachked. This solution is independent on .gitignore as gitignore is only for untracked files.
