+# Untrack A Directory Of Files Without Deleting
+
+In [Untrack A File Without Deleting It](git/untrack-a-file-without-deleting-it.md),
+I explained how a specific file can be removed from tracking without
+actually deleting the file from the local file system. The same can be done
+for a directory of files that you don't want tracked. Just use the `-r`
+flag:
+
+```bash
+$ git rm --cached -r <directory>
+```
