   8SYNOPSIS
   9--------
  10[verse]
  11'git-clean' [-d] [-n] [-q] [-x | -X]

  13DESCRIPTION
  14-----------
  15Removes files unknown to git.  This allows to clean the working tree
  16from files that are not under version control.  If the '-x' option is
  17specified, ignored files are also removed, allowing to remove all
  18build products.

  20OPTIONS
  21-------
  22-d::
  23        Remove untracked directories in addition to untracked files.
  24
  25-n::
  26        Don't actually remove anything, just show what would be done.
  27
  28-q::
  29        Be quiet, only report errors, but not the files that are
  30        successfully removed.
  31
  32-x::
  33        Don't use the ignore rules.  This allows removing all untracked
  34        files, including build products.  This can be used (possibly in
  35        conjunction with gitlink:git-reset[1]) to create a pristine
  36        working directory to test a clean build.
  37
  38-X::
  39        Remove only files ignored by git.  This may be useful to rebuild
  40        everything from scratch, but keep manually created files.
