How to hide files from a Bitbucket repository?

Question

git

There were no problems with this on GitHub. In the GitHub client, I wrote down what needs to be hidden (including the .gitignore file itself) and that's it. Everything worked.
Now in the Bitbucket client I'm trying to do similar actions. The .gitignore file opens and I write the same thing there as in the GitHub client:

.gitignore
.idea/

But the file and directory is not hidden.
What could be the problem?

Answer 1

git rm --cached [file]
Cancel file indexing
