GIT-CLEAN(1)					     GIT-CLEAN(1)

NAME
       git-clean - Remove untracked files from the working tree

SYNOPSIS
       git clean [-d] [-f] [-n] [-q] [-e <pattern>] [-x | -X] [--] <path>...

DESCRIPTION
       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	option
       is specified, ignored files are also removed. This can, for example, be
       useful to remove all build products.

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

OPTIONS
       -d     Remove  untracked directories in addition to untracked files. If
	      an untracked directory is managed by a different git repository,
	      it  is not removed by default. Use -f option twice if you really
	      want to remove such a directory.

       -f, --force
	      If the git configuration variable clean.requireForce is not  set
	      to false, git clean will refuse to run unless given -f or -n.

       -n, --dry-run
	      Don’t  actually  remove  anything, just show what would be
	      done.

       -q, --quiet
	      Be quiet, only report errors, but not the files  that  are  suc-
	      cessfully removed.

       -e <pattern>, --exclude=<pattern>
	      Specify  special exceptions to not be cleaned. Each <pattern> is
	      the same form as in $GIT_DIR/info/excludes and this  option  can
	      be given multiple times.

       -x     Don’t  use	the  ignore  rules.  This  allows removing all
	      untracked files, including build	products.  This	 can  be  used
	      (possibly	 in  conjunction  with git reset) to create a pristine
	      working directory to test a clean build.

       -X     Remove only files ignored by git. This may be useful to  rebuild
	      everything from scratch, but keep manually created files.
