Re: [EGit PATCH] IgnoreAction to add to .gitignore files

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Actually, that's pretty much exactly the format that Eclipse users will be expecting.

CVS: Add to .cvsignore
SVN: Add to svn:ignore

I suggest that we go with that style of format for the menu items, in order to achieve consistency with the way that the other team providers work.

Note also that the tooltip is usually much shorter than that ... it's not a full help description, it explains what it does.

The label and tooltip are too "git-specific", IMHO. I'd rather see:

IgnoreAction_label=&Ignore file(s) for commits...
IgnoreAction_tooltip=The selected file(s) will not be included by default in your commits. However, you may force the include of these files in a commit
by explicitly adding them via "Team->Add" [or whatever the label is].
\n\nSelecting files to ignore by this mechanism will automatically add one or
more files named .gitignore in your next commit.
