Since using jj I'm on the lookout for some kind of setting that will exclude the .jj folder from the repo _and_ any operation including git clean, without having to add it to the repo. I.e., make it completely invisible to git including `git clean -xdf`! At the moment I'm making do with aliasing `git clean -e .jj`

  In the above case, since this touches the local repo, wouldn't a .gitconfig include.path be a better option? Just in case it's unclear, you'd then set an excludesFile in the included file to the path to a file like jj.gitignore that has a line like .jj in it.

  Unfortunately not. Git clean still tries to, well, clean it. Unless I goofed it, which is a >0 possibility, I will happily concede.
