GIT "stop tracking" not working using source tree

I have some files specific to my development on my machine. That files would not need to go on live. To do so I did the following:

Right clicked the file "Working copy section" and clicked Stop Tracking. The file goes upward. From the upward panel I again clicked "Stop tracking" from the upward panel. The file delete from my disc.

I want to do all this because until I do not commit I can't pull the code.

I tried with every possible actions available in sourcetree. But either it overwrote the live file or delete the live or delete my copy or overwrote my copy.

I just want to remove that file from tracking.

Any kind of help is appreciated.

You can add those files to your .gitignore file, or to your global git ignore settings file.
