i use that as a way of removing files routinely while debugging, the issue
is that i am not packaging the files as an application but rather using the
bzr upload plugin. I mainly do web applications and have found this to be
the most robust way of keeping apps up to date. i can also work on new
features that can be ignored and not uploaded untill i am ready onto the
main server.

Any way to add an exception to a rule would be great even if it was in the
.bzrignore file. As i mentioned before, i use bazaar for web app development
there is no packaging tool, simply a bazaar upload.

If there could be a way to go:
ignore *rule* except for *exceptions to rule*

then it would be great, as i see it (i have not tried the regex yet) there
seems to be global ignore rules, but no way to add exceptions to the rules,
which is what i am suggesting. Can anyone confirm if the regex thing would
work. I will try myself in any case.

Thanks for the responses.
