Unfortunately, commiting any changes after that step will mark those files as deleted and try to commit that to the repository. Is there any way to tell git to ignore those files automatically (apart from changing our build process not to use or not to delete those files)? Sorry if I overlooked something obvious, Andreas Hildebrandt
