I'll do vc operations on remote hosts on a daily basis, no problem. I've just rechecked my init files, there's nothing for a special vc configuration. vc-ignore-dir-regexp with its default settings does not seem to disturb Tramp. How do you access your remote machine? Which Tramp method do you use? Which vc backend do you use? Personally, I access the remote machine via Tramp's ssh/scp methods, using git. I believe, bzr and cvs ought to work also, but that's years ago. What does (vc-registered "") tells you? Pls run it when you have set tramp-verbose to 6 in advance; I would like to see which Tramp commands were sent. Is it possible for you to use vc operations on local files, prefixed with "/ssh::"? > Thx, > > Skip Montanaro Best regards, Michael.
