Do I add IDE's files to the git

If I build Netbeans or or any other IDE project with git do I add IDE specific files like:

manifest.mf nbproject/ lib/ build.xml

Certainly we do not keep binaries to version system. What files is appropriate to add to git repo? I understand that when building Maven project then only pom.xml is needed, but in case I just click new->project.

You should check in, at a minimum, your nbproject/configurations.xml and nbproject/project.xml (assuming you have those). You should also consider checking in the other files in nbproject/ such as any Makefiles, but do not check in the private/ subdirectory (again, if you have it).

The reason I check in my Makefiles is that I want to be able to build my project in Jenkins, outside of NetBeans. Jenkins clones the repo and runs make without any IDE support.
