Here we go again. There are still problem with file name completion. I
have two directories:

  ~/ecb-cvs/
  ~/ecb-cvs-old/

Doing

  C-x C-f ~/ecb TAB

gives ~/ecb-cvs-old/ which is not what I want.

Of course I started from "emacs -Q".


In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2009-06-30
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.4) --no-opt --cflags
-Ic:/g/include -fno-crossjumping'

I don't see this problem.  With this recipe, I get ~/ecb-cvs

Are you sure?

Yes, I just checked again with a checkout from 2009-08-01. (Starting
from "emacs -Q" of course.)

It could perhaps be w32 specific. Could someone more please check?

Hint: see the value of completion-ignored-extensions.

Okay to close this bug as a feature?

Hm, I see. ;-)


> Okay to close this bug as a feature?


Maybe, I am not sure. Is this the intended behaviour? Should all file
names ending in "CVS/" be ignored? Does CVS use any other file names
beside just "CVS"? Why is not the hidden property on the file name in
this case used instead? (At least on w32 the CVS directory has a
hidden property.)

It doesn't seem right to me either.  What happens if you change "CVS/"
in completion-ignored-extensions to "/CVS/"?

I think CVS is hard-wired to use "CVS", but it's been a while since
I used it.
