## I just ran into this after initializing a Visual Studio project _before_ adding a .gitignore file (like an idiot).  
## I felt real dumb commiting a bunch of files I didn't need to, so the commands below should do the trick.  The first two commands
## came from the second answer on this post:  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7527982/applying-gitignore-to-committed-files

# See the unwanted files:
git ls-files -ci --exclude-standard

# Remove the unwanted files: 
git ls-files -ci --exclude-standard -z | xargs -0 git rm --cached
