The other answers are excellent; I just thought I'd contribute a useful little tool. Check out the Visual Studio .gitignore template on GitHub. It's a nice actively maintained list of files that are commonly kept out of version control.

And while you're at it, the whole gitignore repository is a very useful resource for all sorts of development from ActionScript to Zend. If you don't use Git, you can still use the gitignore files as a reference.
