I need a way to tell WinCVS to:
- Ignore some files
- Assume binary/text for some files
when doing imports, and optionally when doing adds.
We work in java, and the cvs users have a directory called src and another
called classes, both inside the module directory. When they have a
half-finished module, they want to put it under source control. They do so
by using "import module" from the WinCVS browser. The filtering selects
".class", ".bak" files and many others I just want to ignore. I have tried
the .cvsignore in my home directory but it does not seem to be used when
doing an import. I have also tried to use it on the server, but it is
ignored as well.
How can I block users from adding some kind of files?
I am using WinCVS 1.1b13 on clients (NT) and CVS 1.10.8 on the server
(Solaris).
Thanks.
