Hi there,
I just upgraded my Subclipse SVN client and have noticed something that I
thought was a bug, but after further research, it turned out to be a change
in feature. According to your log, as of December 1st, "When a folder
contains unversioned (and unignored) resources, decorate the folder as
modified. This is how the CVS plugin handles it.". This is also the reason
why I don't use CVS and recommend the use of Subclipse to others. Most of
the time, many software creates many temporary items - especially when you
are mixing different programming languages within one Eclipse Java project.
These temporary items and binaries should not be checked in even though they
are created in the same folder. One might also want to disassociate files
that has been checked out (e.g. properties files) to make customization.
Having a "modified" marker on these "unversioned" files renders the
"modified" status pretty useless to me because almost ALL folder now has a
star. :(
I do realize that I can add individual files to the ignore list, but that
would waste a lot more time when certain program create new logs, temporary
files, or other file not relevant to the repository. My suggestion is
either bring back good old version feature (before 0.9.100) or add a check
box to give the end user a choice. Thank you for your attention.
Your loyal Subclipse user and consultant,
RM.
