+to tell Git to ignore changes to files that are tracked.  This does not

+work as expected, since Git may still check working tree files against

+the index when performing certain operations.  In general, Git does not

+provide a way to ignore changes to tracked files, so alternate solutions

+are recommended.</p></div>

+<div class="paragraph"><p>For example, if the file you want to change is some sort of config file,

+the repository can include a sample config file that can then be copied

+into the ignored name and modified.  The repository can even include a

+script to treat the sample file as a template, modifying and copying it

+automatically.</p></div>
