Luckily -- unlike CVS -- Git offers another way to ignore stuff locally: you can specify extra gitignore files in the configuration. You can even do this globally for all your repositories. For that, add to your ~/.gitconfig: [core] excludesfile = /home/<login>/.site.gitignore and then create ~/.site.gitignore (or whatever name you prefer) with *~ and other local stuff you tend to have in your working trees. -antrik- _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
