Re: [Subclipse-users] Subclipse shows folder as dirty when the only modified resources are marked derived

E.g. log config, database connection template files, etc. You check out the project and get the default configuration, but then modify it to suit your preferences and then mark it derived so that you don't check it back in and it doesn't show up as a local change. Worked great! Unfortunately, since a change to Subclipse in the last 8 months or so, now the folders show up as dirty, even if the only changed resources inside are marked derived. See attached - the schema and web folders are clean and show nothing to commit, but they appear dirty. That's because there are a couple of local changes to files that I've then marked derived.

Is this a bug? I'm going to gouge out my eyeballs soon. Please save me!

Nothing has changed in Subclipse. I would guess they are not Derived
any more. Derived is not meant as a user-editable property. Why not
just use svn:ignore settings to ignore the files?
