gitgnore.io is a great resource for this. Select Unity, your IDE, and your OS.
First set Edit -> Project Settings -> Asset Serialization = force text
Then use this file for git: https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/Unity.gitignore (copy in the main folder near Assets, Library etc.). If using svn stop using svn.
And yes, the .meta files are necessary.
