.gitignore files not in a set

Question

Is there a way to limit the filetypes tracked by git by specifying a set of acceptable file types in .gitignore?

I want to be able to limit the filetypes commited to my compiled directory. I understand that the parser is not regex but I'd like something like this.

!src/(*.js|*.html|*.css)

Answer 1

You can just do

src/*
!src/*.js
!src/*.css
!src/*.html
