While Marcin's response it correct, I would like to add a different
emphasis. I asked a similar question months ago.
Specifically, when I open a file and find a swap file, I _almost
always_ want to _delete_ that swap file _immediately_. Rarely, I'll
want to recover. If I did, it would be only be five minutes later
after correcting the swap file creating event.
Ignoring seems dangerous. It leaves that swap file around. Next time
you edit the file, you again will be prompted. However the swap may be
way out of date. Using it might blow away newer edits.
There is probably a use case for ignoring swap files, but not in my
work flow.

Of course, when you did your "new edits", you were given a requestor
about recovering, so you had to have done so deliberately.
