git commit template example file.md

• Commit your file
• git update-index --assume-unchanged <file>
• Allow changes using: git update-index --no-assume-unchanged <file>

This only works when user executes the command.

So you’ll need to add a note to the repo’s README and maybe make it easy by abstracting within a Makefile:

lock_local_file:
  git update-index --assume-unchanged ./some/file.json
