Perhaps you added them before changing the gitignore?

@Wombat it doesn't work that way, changes to tracked files are never ignored, even if they are on .gitignore.

@jesustricks but I don't understand why my vendor folder suddenly got tracked.

@Wombat maybe you staged it THEN ignored it in .gitignore, and then made a commit

if you had unstaged it before the commit, you wouldn't be able to stage it again

run

git log --diff-filter=A -- vendor

to see when the vendor folder was added (assuming it's located at the root of the project)

@jesustricks I never added it to git ignore it is added by default on laravel projects. 😫

@Wombat well maybe it is versioned for a good reason.

if you really really really want to renove it from git for good (locally and from remote), you can use git filter-branch or bfg repo cleaner.
