You can still force add them with 'git add -f foo.bar' But most smart shell
auto completions won't work with it either which is a bit annoying. I use a
blacklist, and it works for all of my packages, but I don't have anything
pulling things like .deb sources or a million other possibilities; I think
using a whitelist instead of a blacklist may be the way to go.
