Subject: vc-directory ignores .cvsignore?
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2008 00:29:16 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m37ii185zn.fsf@podval.org> (raw)
GNU Emacs 23.0.50.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.3)
of 2008-01-09 on loiso
'--with-gtk'
I have been using PCL-CVS for "multi-file commits" and VC for single
file commits until I was forced to use baz and now hg at work.
since it appears that cvs is losing ground not to svn but to git/bzr/hg,
I decided to give C-x v d (vc-directory) a try.
the first thing I discovered was that .cvsignore appears to be ignored:
here is the "dired under cvs" buffer:

/usr/local/src/clisp/current/.cvsignore lists "build*", i.e., all
build-* directories are just that - hard and soft links of sources and
compiled files.
so, why are they listed here?
I understand that this is because the CVS directories are linked over
too, but why are these directories descended into?
thanks.

There are many reasons not to use Lisp - but no good ones.
