| New resource CVS filter [message #219400] |

I'm interested in filtering out new resources from the Team Synchronize
view of a CVS repository. Our build process generates a lot of new
files into the source tree that should not be checked in. I know that's
a bad policy, but it wasn't my decision. Trying to find any changed
files amongst all the outgoing changes would be much easier if I could
filter out the new resources I wasn't interested in adding to CVS.
Would that be a new feature request, an existing feature I haven't found
yet, or a filter I could configre using the XML filter facility I've
read about in the documentation.
Thanks for any help,
Steve

The problem with such a feature would be, how does it distinguish
between "new" files that were generated by the build and files that you
have actually manually created and should be added to the repository?
If you can get the generated files to be in a specific directory, you
can add that directory to the .cvsignore and you'll be good to go.
HTH,
Eric
