Hi Ric,

Reading the comments on that patch, it appears to have been abandoned in
favour of a solution in JGit. http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,683 seems to
be the one you're looking for.

cheers,
Carsten

Carsten,

Thanks for the reply. So how can I get this fix? Do I need to get the
patch and integrate it myself? Or...

TIA, Ric

This patch is merged into master since 2010.
Can you post more details about your problem? What folders aren't ignored and what's the content of the .gitignore file?
I haven't seen this problem so far, so maybe it's a bug with special folder names or something like that.

Below is the contents of my .gitignore_global file (which is pointed to
in my .gitconfig). Note that it attempts to exclude .DS_Store (which I
also do in EGit's preferences). But it always shows this in the commit
window anyway. I can hide the .DS_Store by clicking "untracked" icon,
but it comes back the next time I open the commit dialog.
