I misspoke here. '.be/' a directory that's part of both upstream *and*
the Debian working tree, and belongs in version control; but should
not be part of the Debian source package, because it's on the order of
a VCS data directory.

In other words (and thank you for asking questions until I know how to
ask this): I want an additional directory to be removed from the
Debian source package, the same way '.bzr/' and '.hg/' and 'CVS/' et
al are removed when building the Debian source package.

How can I achieve this? What should I use?
