Alternatively, can you teach me how to override this file locally without carrying a diff? I'm asking because this makes life painful for my workflow. Having git clean be able to handle .orig and .rej is incredibly handy when applying large patch sets. It makes finding a rejected patch as simple as 'git clean -n | grep rej'. Also, when directories are removed *AND* they have an errant .orig or .rej file remaining in them, git rm will not garbage collect the directory. This causes the build to fail. I used to use the trick of 'git clean -nd' to find such directories, but now they are hidden. This scenario just cost me hours of parsing make output, trying to figure out why my build had failed. Thanks, Drewhome | help
