you can add to your global ignore pattern.

In Tortoise settings, on the General pane, there's a edit field to add global ignore patterns. These are wildcard-enabled so you can add all the temporary files, eg *.ncb etc, but also directories.

eg. here's my global ignore pattern, you can see it's set to ignore many file types but also a couple of directories.

*.dep *.aps *.vbw *.suo *.obj *.ncb *.plg *.bsc *.ilk *.exp *.sbr *.opt *.pdb *.idb *.pch *.res *.scc *.vspscc *\bin\Release *\Debug *\obj *.user BuildLog.htm *.cache *.log *.dep *.intermediate.manifest *ReSharper*
