Public bug reported: Binary package hint: tar
The --exclude-vcs flag (see http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/exclude.html#SEC103) tells tar to ignore files from certain version control systems, including CVS, Subversion, and git. It would be very helpful if Mercurial files were also excluded when using that flag. For that matter, Bazaar files should be handled as well, especially considering Bazaar is an official GNU project. I would also recommend excluding Darcs files. ** Affects: tar (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- --exclude-vcs should exclude Mercurial files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239353 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
