After I compile, though, and

since the last commit.

You should create a file called ".gitignore" (note the initial dot) in
the toplevel directory of the source tree which is tracked by git. In
there you list all the files which you don't want to be tracked. You
can use asterisks as well (as in "*.txt"). Then git will ignore these
files and only show the status of the remaining ones.

Awesome. Thanks Max and Jean-Charles for these tips. I figured there was probably a way to tell it to ignore files or whole directories (like I do with rsync when backing up my machine, for example) but I hadn't gotten around to checking on it yet. I'll do this after the kids are in bed tonight. Thanks!

Jon
