title: How to Move a Tracked File to Untracked using Visual Studio Tools for Git
body: <p>Started experimenting with git.  Inadvertently added all the files in the project to "Included Changes" in Team Explorer.  I committed all in an initial commit.   One of those files was the SQL CE 4.0 (file-based) database.  I clearly goofed there.  I do not want to track the database nor do I want to end up restoring the db back to some previous point.  </p>
  
  <p>My problem is I have no idea of how to move the SQL CE 4.0 sdf file from included changes to untracked.  I am not experienced with git and all I know to date is what is afforded to me in the Team Explorer UI.</p>
  
  <p>So, how do I move a file from (committed and) tracked to untracked?  At the end of a successful operation, I would like to have the sdf file in the "untracked" bin and would like to have it removed from commits which have been pushed up to the remote repo.  I just do not know exactly where to start and what to do</p>
