I am experimenting with Mercurial, to learn how to use it for local development. In the OpenSolaris Fox repo I see this ".hgignore" file: <http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/fox/fox-gate/.hgignore> which (mostly) makes sense to me.
But I do not see ".hgignore" files for some of the other projects, such as: <http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref//onnv/onnv-gate> how does Mercurial know to ignore derived objects in those trees? Pat ---
