Node:cvsignore, Next:cvswrappers, Previous:config, Up:Ficheros de Administracion del Repositorio
Ignores certain files when doing updates, imports, or releases. By
default, CVS already ignores some kinds of files. (For a full list, see
the -I option to import, earlier in this chapter.) You can add to this
list by putting additional file names or wildcard patterns in the
cvsignore file. Each line gives a file name or pattern, for example:
README.msdos *.html blah?.out
This causes CVS to ignore any file named README.msdos, any file
ending in .html, and any file beginning with blah and
ending with .out. (Technically, you can name multiple files or
patterns on each line, separated by whitespace, but it is more readable
to keep them to one per line. The whitespace separation rule does,
unfortunately, mean that there's no way to specify a space in a file
name, except to use wildcards.)
A ! anywhere in the list cancels all previous entries. (See
$CVSIGNORE in the section Environment Variables in
this chapter for a fuller discussion of ignore processing.)
