Netbeans Linux and Windows Makefile-*.mk and Package-*.bash files in nbproject directories are automatically generated during compile.  These files are continually updated, which can cause a long list of unnecessary files to add, commit, and push (or that are Untracked).  This has been experienced for Linux and Windows C++ projects.

If checked the option "Always create backup copy" under Settings -> Save within Microsoft Word 2016 on macOS, when editing a docx file, a folder named as same as docx file name(without ext) will be created and placed a docx backup file named "Backup of DOCX_ORIGINAL_FILENAME.docx".

.idea/misc.xml used to contain usage statistics.  This was broken out to usage.statistics.xml in the latest EAP (2018.2 EAP).  It should be excluded from git.

Since IDEA 14 (2014), IDEA and other contemporaneous JebBrains IDEs don't store sensitive info in `datasources.xml` and it makes sense to version control to share project data sources among the team. `dataSources.local.xml` is user-specific: contain usernames and could be sensitive from a security perspective, albeit passwords could be externalized to e.g. Mac Keychain.
