For the benefit of those who aren't familiar with Apache, a .htaccess
file is basically a configuration file that overrides directives set
out in the apache config file, on a per directory basis.
For example, it can be used to password-protect a directory.
It's useful if you're on a shared web host and they won't exactly
allow you access to the httpd.conf
