bower installs several files. why and how can I change it?

bower, javascript, jquery

Solution

It's up to the package authors to specify what files to exclude from the package using the `ignore` property. For now just include the files you want in the your app/website and ignore the rest.

Problem

I am using bower to install dependencies for my project(I know there is yeoman but I am using bower). After setting up component.json file, when I do bower install it installs dependencies to correct directory but it install lots of other unnecessary files with it too. Now I want bower to install the specific file which is needed for example `jquery.js, backbone.js and underscore.js` and nothing else. How can I do it with bower?
