How to ignore .gitignore file itself?

[Himanshu Kumar]

In most of my projects i have a habit of keeping some utility files and other resources in some directory and add its name to .gitignore file to ignore them, but other collaborators may not have same set of gitignore file/directory list. Sometime I don't want others to see what my gitignore file content. So my motive is to put .gitignore file in the list of gitignore files/directory. Can someone help me in achieving the same.

The solutions in this case is to have a global gitignore. It is not linked to repository  but it is linked to your global git configuration. It is like git settings, while the  gitignore in repository is  specific repository setting
