Those are usually in your gitignore, right?

Also, this behavior (automatically tracking) is configurable. I thought I would hate it but I actually really like it.

Yeah they usually are, I'm sure it's great because I add files more often than I ignore, but I need to be careful with the temporary files I write left and right in the repo dir during development.

Why? You can easily remove them if they’re accidentally added.

Just because I might not remember/notice, and I don't want sensitive data to be committed by accident if I put an env var on disk for some reason.
