title: How do I ignore this Eclipse file in Git?
body: <p>I tried adding it to my global <em>.gitignore</em> but it is still showing up as an untracked file when I do <code>git status</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>researchProject/.externalToolBuilders/org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.javascriptValidator (4).launch
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I disabled the JavaScript validator because it kept giving my build errors -- the only solution I found was to disable it.</p>
