AFAIK, Microsoft has intentionally decided to automatically exclude from Windows Search indexing everything that's in version control. So it appears that Windows Search now excludes everything that's in a subtree of a directory with .git, .hg, .svn directories (and perhaps other VCSes). I was unable to find any workaround for this in Windows Search the last time I tried. Here are two relevant links: Supercharging Windows Search <https://insider.windows.com/en-us/articles/desktop-search> [[[ For our developers, we also made a change where the indexer no longer covers popular source repositories, like Git. This was partly because of the sheer size of these repositories, and also because the tools developers use to interact with their repos usually have their own search tools. We also worked with our Visual Studio partners to exclude their project folders, which resulted in a quick 30% improvement in disk usage, for an even better developer experience. ]]] Windows 10 version 2004, May 2020 Update: new features and changes <https://pureinfotech.com/windows-10-2004-new-features/> [[[ In addition, there are some specific improvements for developers to prevent searches of certain repositories and project folders to improve disk usage. In this new version, to improve system performance while compiling and syncing large code bases in the default indexed location, Windows 10 is updating the indexing behavior to exclude common developer folders, such as .git, .hg, .svn, .Nuget, and more by default. ]]] -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TortoiseSVN-dev" group.
