How to exclude .gitignore rules only once?

Question

Make once init of my laravel 8 app on server(ubuntu 20) I need to upload some images under storage, which is excluded from git by .gitignore rules.

I do not like to remove .gitignore at all, but if there is a way to exclude these rules only once ?

Seems there is some force option, but how can I use it running command locally :

git push -u origin master

and on server :

git pull origin master

?

My root .gitignore:

# These are some examples of commonly ignored file patterns. # You should customize this list as applicable to your project. # Learn more about .gitignore: # https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/saving-changes/gitignore # Node artifact files node_modules/ dist/ # Compiled Java class files *.class # Compiled Python bytecode *.py[cod] # Log files *.log # Package files *.jar # Maven target/ dist/ # JetBrains IDE .idea/ # Unit test reports TEST*.xml # Generated by MacOS .DS_Store # Generated by Windows Thumbs.db # Applications *.app *.exe *.war # Large media files *.mp4 *.tiff *.avi *.flv *.mov *.wmv /public/js/laravel.app.js /public/js/oneui.app.js /public/js/tables_datatables.js /public/css/oneui.css composer.lock package-lock.json .env vendor/ route_list.txt

Which is correct syntax ?

Thanks!

Your question is not quite clear. Do you have some more .gitignore files ? — Mostafa Bahri

Maybe in subdirectories of the project there are. But now I have default rules that files under /storage are not pushed/pulled by git. I need to ignore these rules only once — mstdmstd

Looks like adding -f key like:

git add -f storage/app/public/Photos/1/img-13.jpg

works in my case
