Hi!
I wish to have a file in my bazaar branch that is changes my network
manager, cause I like to record my home default configuration of it.
But I like to ignore any automatic changes. Thus I thought I bzr ignore
it, but bzr ignore doesn't seem to let me ignore file that are still in the
branch. Why?
Can bzr be told to ignore is *nonetheless* instead of insisting that it
knows better whats good for me?
merkaba:/etc> bzr ignore resolv.conf
Warning: the following files are version controlled and match your ignore
pattern:
resolv.conf
These files will continue to be version controlled unless you 'bzr remove'
them.
merkaba:/etc> bzr diff
=== added file '.bzrignore'
--- .bzrignore 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000

[... some differences ...]
For now I just removed the file from the branch:
merkaba:/etc#1> bzr remove --keep resolv.conf
removed resolv.conf
merkaba:/etc> bzr revert .bzrignore
- .bzrignore
merkaba:/etc> rm .bzrignore
merkaba:/etc>
But thats not the optimal solution in my viewpoint.
Ciao,
