backup files made by your editor. Of course, 'not' tracking files with git
is just a matter of 'not' calling "`git-add`" on them. But it quickly becomes

You can tell git to ignore certain files by creating a file called .gitignore
in the top level of your working directory, with contents such as:
$ mv proj.git /home/you/public_html/proj.git
$ cd proj.git
$ git --bare update-server-info
-$ chmod a+x hooks/post-update
+$ mv hooks/post-update.sample hooks/post-update

-throwing away commits on mybranch.

Also note that all of the above configuration can be performed by
directly editing the file .git/config instead of using
