Just to clarify: are you talking about the directory comparison view, or the version control view of Meld? In directory comparison you can set up ignored shell globs (Preferences->File filters) but there is no equivalent for version control. If anyone wants to have a go at this, it should be easy to add the required logic in VcView._search_recursively_iter. Off the top of my head, I'd expect that all we'd do is not recurse into any subdirectory that came back as "Ignored". Hooking this up to various VC systems may or may not be easy. cheers, Kai _______________________________________________ meld-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/meld-list
