Well, I think a lot of people would be bothered by the idea of you maintaining a copy of what will amount to a list of all files.

The files listed in those files have to be built in the source tree for various reasons even if you configure a separate build directory. So the .cvsignore files serve to get clean cvs diffs if you use a separate build directory. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
