Whoops cleaned some stuff by mistake! Gone are some junks that I forgot about

editor-testing $ git clean -xdn
Would remove .pytest_cache/
Would remove .yarn/
Would remove __pycache__/
Would remove constant.py
Would remove headless_emacs.py
Would remove poetry.lock
Would remove pyproject.toml
Would remove test_open_emacs_and_quit.py
Would remove vim_experiment.py
editor-testing $ git clean -fxd

Removing vim_experiment.py

whoops!! Again I confused "untracked" with "ignored" - I only wanted to clear the ignored files, so that I could cleanly reinstall the dependencies. Would be good to have a safe-cleanup function that would back them up or put them in ~/.trash or something... cause I lost those for sure !! Though I did have some fun looking up extundelete.

extundelete --restore-directory . /dev/nvme0n1

Didn't work. Oh well! Also it warned me about working on a mounted filesystem. Ignored that err
