How To Unhide Hidden Files In Windows 10
When I use .git init
.git file is always subconscious by default, I have to always unselect the subconscious selection in properties. What is the way I can modify this default setting?
Also when I del .git
only the config,clarification and Head file are deleted,non the entire .git folder. How can I alter this default setting so I don't have to always unhide after git init
?
I'g using windows 8.1

core.hideDotFiles
(Windows-but) If true, mark newly-created directories and files whose name starts with a dot as hidden. If dotGitOnly, only the .git/ directory is hidden, only no other files starting with a dot. The default fashion is dotGitOnly.

I'd guess yous should just be able to blazon "show hidden files and folders" into your search bar on Windows and turn on show all file extensions, and subconscious files. That should work and then. Or run ls -a
to view all files in that directory also.

Personally, I call up it is in your best interest that it stays hidden.
But in case you lot still desire information technology to exist visible.
I recommend y'all enable show hidden files
folder view option on your windows.
This way the hidden .git
folder will always be visible whenever you git init

That is what I have to do everytime ..merely the purpose of asking this question was to know if at that place is any other mode around. I mean not having to select "testify hidden folders"

From my findings, this is the only option we have. On my system, I keep the choice on all the time. Have a great time @AjiteshRanjan

My (piffling chip oriented...) two cent: use the git bash command line (I suppose you are using git for windows) and you'll never e'er bother with this again:
ls -a
to listing all files/folders including hidden,rm -rf .git
to remove the local repo and references.Sep 21, 2019 at thirteen:35
