Git will refuse to modify untracked nested git repositories (directories with a .git subdirectory) unless a second -f is given. This adds the ability to pass "-ff" to git clean to enable removing directories with a .git subdirectory. An example use case is when a gem from a git source is cached in vendor/cache/some_gem Removing this with "git clean" would require "git clean -dff" Signed-off-by: Cameron Walsh <cameron.walsh@gmail.com>
