DESCRIPTION
-----------
-Removes files unknown to git. This allows cleaning the working tree

-specified, ignored files are also removed, allowing the removal of all
-build products.
+
+Cleans the working tree by recursively removing files that are not
+under version control, starting from the current directory.
+
+Normally, only files unknown to git are removed, but if the '-x'

+
If any optional `<path>...` arguments are given, only those paths
are affected.
