Idea-gitignore: Invalid "found ignored files included in git"

[zeg-io]

I have a project with a "temp directory" which I want to include but NOT include any files within it EXCEPT for .gitinclude file. (so it preserves the directory)

So my .gitignore looks like this:

#Ensure the files directory is included, but not the contents
tempFiles
!.gitinclude

/tempFiles
-> .gitinclude
-> _otherTempFile.xml_
-> _otherTempFile.xml_
-> _otherTempFile.xml_

However, the plugin is erroneously thinking that .gitinclude is supposed to be ignored rather than specifically un-ingnored

Same here, with this structure:

/storage
  /cache
    .gitignore

And this .gitignore file:

*
!.gitignore

The plugin also doesn't take into account that a checked-in .gitignore file doesn't ignore itself:

/temp
  .gitignore

Where .gitignore is simply:

*

Git still picks up changes to this file.

Confirming, this is happening from the last release

Thank you for this report. I have fixed both (excluding files with ! and a case with *) issues. They will be delivered with the next v2.0.0 release.
