SYNOPSIS

10         use File::Find::Rule      ();
11         use File::Find::Rule::VCS ();
12
13         # Find all files smaller than 10k, ignoring version control files
14         my @files = File::Find::Rule->ignore_vcs
15                                     ->file
16                                     ->size('<10Ki')

DESCRIPTION

20       Many tools need to be equally useful both on ordinary files, and on
21       code that has been checked out from revision control systems.
22
23       File::Find::Rule::VCS provides quick and convenient methods to exclude
24       the version control directories of several major Version Control
25       Systems (currently CVS, subversion, and Bazaar).
26
27       File::Find::Rule::VCS implements methods to ignore the following:
28
29       CVS
30       Subversion
31       Bazaar
32
33       In addition, the following version control systems do not create
34       directories in the checkout and do not require the use of any ignore
35       methods
36
37       SVK
38       Git
39

METHODS

41   ignore_vcs
42         # Ignore all common version control systems
43         $find->ignore_vcs;
44
45         # Ignore a specific named version control systems
46         $find->ignore_vcs($name);
47
48         # Ignore nothing (silent pass-through)
49         $find->ignore_vcs('');
50
51       The "ignore_vcs" method excludes the files for a named Version Control
52       System from your File::Find::Rule search.
53
54       If passed, the name of the version control system is case in-sensitive.
55       Names currently supported are 'cvs', 'svn', 'subversion', 'bzr', and
56       'bazaar'.
57
58       As a convenience for high-level APIs, if the VCS name is the defined
59       null string '' then the call will be treated as a nullop.
60
61       If no params at all are passed, this method will ignore all supported
62       version control systems. If ignoring every version control system,
63       please note that any legitimate directories called "CVS" or files
64       starting with .# will be ignored, which is not always desirable.
65
66       In widely-distributed code, you instead should try to detect the
67       specific version control system used and call ignore_vcs with the
68       specific name.
69
70       Passing "undef", or an unsupported name, will throw an exception.
71
72   ignore_cvs
73       The "ignore_cvs" method excluding all CVS directories from your
74       File::Find::Rule search.
75
76       It will also exclude all the files left around by CVS after an
77       automated merge that start with '.#' (dot-hash).
78
79   ignore_svn
80       The "ignore_svn" method excluding all Subversion (".svn") directories
81       from your File::Find::Rule search.
82
83   ignore_bzr
84       The "ignore_bzr" method excluding all Bazaar (".bzr") directories from
85       your File::Find::Rule search.
86
