Some files are being ignored even if they are not in my gitignore, are there any other ignore files other than gitignore?

I created 2 new projects in my solution and although it commits all the files, it ignores my .csproj files (it even shows "ignored" on visual studio).

I verified that my .gitignore had no such weird ignores. Also, when I clicked to "add to source control", there was no changes on my .gitignore.

Perhaps I am failing to understand something basic about how source control is acting on my solution folder, but I am just worried that it fails to commit/push all files as not all files are visible in visual studio.

So, are there any other ignore files than gitignore?

It is possible that Visual Studio, as described in its tutorial has setup a system-wide gitignore file:

 git config core.excludesfile C:\Users\frank\.gitignore_global

With that declaration, you can have "other ignore files other than gitignore".

Do a git config -l from within your repo to check for any "gitignore" or "exclude" declaration line.
