Hoe about not committing them in the first place? (Don't use "git
commit -A", but instead carefully inspect everything "git status"
offers you.) Or, if you must, for your development desire, then commit
them in a separate commit which you then don't include in your exported
patch(es).

I don't know about Netbeans, but e.g. Qt Creator offers me to add its
projects files to a detected revision control, but I can click "no
thanks" (or un-add them later, before committing).
