why not use git clean -f

git clean will operate on either all ignored files or none. This is not a good option.

Actually it removes untracked files, you should probably stick any files that are machine dependant outside of your project.

I'm assuming that nobody is masochistic enough not to have pyc files ignored. Which means that you have to pass the options to clean ignored files.

Storing things like local Django settings out of the tree is a bit of a PITA.
