That did the job, but I can't sort the same thing in git so since this is a new 
module I can simply loose the history and push a clean current copy back there. 
NOW I need to work out how to make sure the files listed as ignore ARE ignored. 
I suspect hg-git does not recognise something here, but if they are not in the 
commit, they should not be pushed?
