Hi @waghangad

Does git status --ignored help?

Yes. It’s working.
Also suppose I want to remove file from .gitignore what command should I use

If you want to remove the file from the repo, you can use git rm --cached <file name>. Here --cached will keep files on your filesystem.

Refer this: git - How to remove files that are listed in the .gitignore but still on the repository? - Stack Overflow

No, my question was suppose I added file in .gitignore using
echo test.txt >> .gitignore
but now I want to get that file out from .gitignore in working directory.
they which command should I use

Try git clean -X <filename>

Also check out man git clean or git clean --help for options it takes.
