I have *.log in .gitignore_global but I want to add it locally.

How can I achieve this?

Patterns prefixed with a "!" will match again, so you can add this in your local .gitignore:

!*.log

From the gitignore docs:

  • An optional prefix ! which negates the pattern; any matching file excluded by a previous pattern will become included again. If a negated pattern matches, this will override lower precedence patterns sources.
