+ Many source trees contain some files that do not need to be
+versioned, such as editor backups, object or bytecode files, and built
+programs. You can simply not add them, but then they'll always crop
+up as unknown files. You can also tell the version control system to
+ignore these files by adding them to the ignore file at the top of the
+tree. @kbd{C-x v G} (@code{vc-ignore}) can help you do this. When
+called with a prefix argument, you can remove a file from the ignored
+file list.
