Greetings, all. I've got a question about .cvsignore and previously-deleted files. (This is independent of the other thread discussing possible additions to the default .cvsignore file.) In the module I'm working on, there is a file called productInfo.cc. This file used to be in the CVS repository, but since it's generated anew by an awk script during the build process, I `cvs remove'd it. However, the fact that there's a new file with the same name as a previously-deleted file causes CVS to generate annoying little warnings. For instance: [rccpc:~/it7dev/it7V2.02/it7/src/server/umServer]$ cvs -n update cvs update: Updating . M It7UmAccum.cc M It7UmAccum.h ... ... A environment-notes.txt M main.cc cvs update: use `cvs add' to create an entry for productInfo.cc I added productInfo.cc to the .cvsignore file in this local directory, but that didn't seem to have any effect. (Other files in my .cvsignore are, in fact, ignored, so I did *that* part correctly, at least.) These warnings aren't really that serious a problem, but I'd sorta like to get rid of them (if only because I'm a neat-freak). The only way I can think of to fix this is to go into the Attic directory in the repository and blow the corresponding RCS file away. As I said, this file is automatically generated each time we build the program, so the loss of history wouldn't be an issue. Still, this is a pretty ugly solution---are there any better options?
