What I have so far is a .hgignore_ON file that contains:
syntax: glob
archives/*
#closed/*
debug32/*
debug64/*
log/*
packages/*
pics/*
proto/*
webrev/*
*.o
*.mo
cscope.*
.hgignore
.make.state
.make.state.i386
# ignore vim swap files
# .*.sw[a-z]
###############End###############
And in a script I wrote (based on zbringover) called zhgclone that
creates a working repository that is a zfs clone of a zfs snapshot I
have:
cd $new_hg_path
if [[ ! -f .hgignore && -r ~/.hgignore_ON ]]
then
ln -s ~/.hgignore_ON .hgignore
if [[ -d usr/closed && ! -f usr/closed/.hgignore ]]
then
ln -s ~/.hgignore_ON usr/closed/.hgignore
fi
elif [[ ! -r ~/.hgignore_ON ]]
then
print -u2 "\nWarning: can not read ~/.hgignore_ON."
fi
