[platform-vcm-dev] [DRAFT] Proposed API change: Team.isIgnored(IFile)

[James_Moody@xxxxxxx]

We are proposing the following API semantic change.

Team.isIgnored(IFile) currently returns true if the file matches one of the
global ignore flags.
We propose that it should return true if the file matches one of the global
ignore flags OR if the file is a derived resource.

This change will alleviate the responsibility of the provider to know about
derived resources, since for the purposes of most providers, a derived file
is simply one that should be ignored.

We would appreciate any feedback. Barring negative feedback, we will put
this functionality in a week.

See bug 13044.
