Because each time I build a bit of scaffolding, or have a new test output, or... I'd have to add them to .gitignore. I'd very much prefer tracking real contents and not junk. -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 2654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 2654239 Casilla 110-V, Valparaiso, Chile Fax: +56 32 2797513 ``` ## Horst H. von Brand, 2007-01-14 23:49 Subject: Re: Importing from tarballs; add, rm, update-index?
