[fossil-users] Request feature : choose directory for the addremove command

[vince]

Hello,

the command "addremove" synchronize the repository with the working 
directory.
So that fossil adds files that have nothing to do with my projects, such 
as the file fossil.exeitself!
We should be able to choose from which directory we want to do the 
"addremove".

Or we can change the working directory.
thanks.

If fossil is trying to add files such as fossil.exe then you may have
"opened" your fossil repo at the root of your drive. Search for a file
_FOSSIL_ Every file and directory under the level where you find the
_FOSSIL_ is "inside" your repo.

Note that you can use the ignore-glob mechanism to tell fossil to ignore
files that should not be tracked or managed by fossil.

Either add a file .fossil-settings/ignore-glob with one pattern on each
line for the files or browse to settings in the ui and add your remove
patterns in the ignore-glob field there.

Hello,

I have not created my repo at the root of my drive.
For example, I have fossil.exe in d:\projects\
I have a repo as follows: d:\projects\myproject1\myproject1.fossil
When I open the repo, the file_FOSSIL_ is in d:\projects\
Whenever it is in the same directory as fossil.exe
I don't know how to change that.
The ignore-glob mechanism is not a solution.

Then you're opening it from that directory. Or perhaps projects or
myproject1 is a Windows LNK (we've had some weird problems with them in the
past)?

it's not a link.
I open it with the command :
d:\projects> fossil open d:\projects\myproject1\myproject1.fossil

You are opening the "working directory" in the directory from which you
call the command (fossil open). Thus, you ARE opening the working directory
into d:\projects. hence, fossil addremove adds everything in d:\projects
and below. Hence the issues you are seeing.

Re: [fossil-users] Request feature : choose directory for the addremove command

[vince]

yes, you're right.
I tried with the command:
d:\projects\myproject1> ..\fossil open myproject1.fossil
and there it works! thank you!

It is generally considered bad practice to have the .fossil file UNDER or
IN the "open" target directory. That is the source of the confusion.
