After the merge, "git status" complains:

    Untracked files:
      (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
	Documentation/networking/netlink_spec/

So, I don't think there is anything you can do in the Git repo side ...

We need to remember to "rm -rf" the directory after crossing this merge
point.

In theory, such "rm -rf" could be added somewhere in Documentation/Makefile,
but that would not work well with write-protected shared kernel repos.

        Thanks, Akira
