When using a git clone of this repository and building many files show up as new with "git status. This can be fixed by adding a top-level .gitignore file that contains the following:
corvette:~/devel/LabJack_Vendor_Examples/C_CPP_LJM>more .gitignore
*.o
*.dblite
*__pycache__
That still left one file that was new:
more/testing/write_read_loop_with_config_speed_test_eNames
