.gitignore comment issue

[mrardon]

Just as a side note I was able to clean this up - including all the history as you can see on my fork of this project by following the instructions below. I don't know if you all want to get into this but I'll put them here for reference.

Using http://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/ as recommended by Github: https://help.github.com/articles/remove-sensitive-data#using-the-bfg

0. Make a commit to fix the .gitignore line by removing the trailing comment as discussed. This is necessary because BFG will not touch HEAD files

1. Create a file called remove.txt with the contents below. This is our pattern we are looking for it will replace it with an empty string

#added for RIA/Silverlight projects==>

2. Download BFG from http://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/
3. Mirror the repo and make sure you copy this folder to someplace safe as a backup

$ git clone --mirror [email protected]:MindscapeHQ/raygun4php.git

4. Run bfg

$ java -jar bfg-1.11.7.jar --replace-text remove.txt raygun4php.git

5. Force gc and reference fixes:

$ cd some-big-repo.git
$ git reflog expire --expire=now --all
$ git gc --prune=now --aggressive

6. Push up reference changes

$ git push

The final git push will push everything back up and the file will be fixed.

I figured even if you don't do this its good git-fu to know. For now I will just use my fork and pull down whenever necessary.

Cheers.
