Ignore patterns
2
 
***************
3
 
 
4
 
Ignore patterns need to be flexible but simple.
5
 
 
6
 
Based on the system from rsync, which is in turn based on that of
7
 
CVS.  However, I won't implement all of this at first but rather add
8
 
bits as they seem to be needed.
9
 
 
10
 
First build a list by concatenating:
11
 
 
12
 
* per-user configuration
13
 
* per-tree configuration
14
 
* command line options
15
 
 
16
 
Just one ``.bzrignore`` at tree root?
17
 
 
18
 
File can contain '+ ' and '- ' prefixes to include and exclude things,
19
 
also '#' for comments.
20
 
 
21
 
Should have a ``--ignore`` command line option that specifies ignore
22
 
patterns; by putting a ! in this you can turn off any other includes.
23
 
(Similar to CVS.)
