Tig: Feature request: Delete untracked files from status view

[xi]

In git cola I can easily delete an untracked file (or add it to .gitignore which is less important to me). It would be great to have that feature in tig, too.

You can add something like the following to your ~/.tigrc if you want to
delete a file:

bind status D @rm %(file)

This will ask for confirmation before running rm. If you don't want that
change the @ to !.

To ignore you can do:

bind status D !sh -c "echo %(file) >> .gitignore"

Works well. Just one thing: @ does not ask for confirmation. ? does that, but that will execute in foreground.

True, @ means run in the background. You can combine the flags:

bind status D ?@rm %(file)
