First, you shouldn't use sudo to edit files to which you have read+write access. Secondly, to see the .gitignore, you should use ls -a, which will display all hidden files, i.e. files that start with .. Finally, to answer your question, in the top, right-hand portion of the "App Explorer", there is a drop down menu that you find by clicking the white triangle. Click on "Customize View", and then uncheck (under Filters) the ".* resources" checkbox (in aptana 3 and above uncheck .* files). Now, it should show hidden files and folders.

Actually, if you uncheck ".* files" check box the .gitignore file will be visible in Aptana (3.3.1.2)
