title: "Actually, Perforce I don't want you tracking that file after all ..." how do I get Perforce to listen?
body: <p>Sometimes I "Mark for Add" and add files to Perforce which I actually didn't want Perforce to worry about. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to revert it so it just goes back to showing in P4V as an "untracked" item?</p>
  
  <p>See my example:</p>
  
  <p>I've added <code>mil.ico</code> and <code>mil3.ico</code> by mistake. I just want them to go back to looking like <code>test.ico</code>, ie. ignored by Perforce:</p>

  <p>Even if I save a copy of the files, then delete, then put them back (all of which is a serious bore), P4V still knows they have a history and marks them as shown:</p>

  <p>I just want Perforce to leave a file alone when I tell it to.</p>
