how to exclude file only in root directory using git?

Question

I want to ignore file init.js that is inside root directory but not inside lib/apps/<DIR>/ directories, how can I do this?

I've tried:

./init.js

but this don't work.

Have you tried `/init.js`? – SevenEleven Jan 02 '16 at 14:45 — SevenEleven, Jan 02 '16 at 14:45

As @SevenEleven suggested in a comment, /init.js (without the leading dot) works.
