In its main file tree, Cervisia does not display all files which are actually there. This is analog to cvs itself and helps to avoid clutter caused by uninteresting stuff like object files. Cervisia tries to mimic cvs's behavior as close as possible, i.e. it gets ignore lists from the following sources:
A static list of entries which includes things like *.o
and core
. For details,
see the CVS documentation.
The file
.
$HOME
/.cvsignore
The environment variable $CVSIGNORE
.
The .cvsignore
file in the respective folder.
cvs itself additionally looks up entries in
, but this is a
file on the server, and Cervisia should be able to start up offline. If you
are working with a group that prefers to use an ignore list on the server,
it's probably a good idea to take a look which patterns are listed there and
to put them into the $CVSROOT
/CVSROOT/cvsignore.cvsignore
file in your home
folder.
