Recently I was working on a tree based off 2.6.27, and I went to checkout the mainline branch. I changed my mind and hit ctrl-C partway through, then checked out my original branch. Now when I do "git status" it shows about 600 filenames in the "Untracked files" section. How do I return my tree to a clean state? Can I just delete all these files? Chris
