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
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_rcs
80 The "ignore_rcs" method excluding all RCS directories from your
81 File::Find::Rule search.
82
83 It will also exclude all the files used by RCS to store the revisions
84 (end with ',v').
85
86 ignore_svn
87 The "ignore_svn" method excluding all Subversion (".svn") directories
88 from your File::Find::Rule search.
89
90 ignore_bzr
91 The "ignore_bzr" method excluding all Bazaar (".bzr") directories from
92 your File::Find::Rule search.
93
94 ignore_git
95 The "ignore_git" method excluding all Git (".git") directories from
96 your File::Find::Rule search.
97
98 ignore_hg
99 The "ignore_hg" method excluding all Mercurial/Hg (".hg") directories
100 from your File::Find::Rule search.
101
103 - Add support for other version control systems.
104
105 - Add other useful VCS-related methods
