Files out of the build process should be ignored by .gitignore, as they affect anybody.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">Le 2 octobre 2020 09:57:27 GMT+03:00, Steve Lhomme <robux4@ycbcr.xyz> a écrit :<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

I use Git-Gui to manage staging<br>and committing, and the presence of all these files cluttering the<br>unstaged files list means that whenever I click 'stage changed' I'm<br>forced to click 'no' in a dialog asking if I want to stage them.

You just add them to .git/info/exclude. I use TortoiseGit <br>and it's available in the git ignore dialog box.<br><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #729fcf; padding-left: 1ex;">The first fix for the translation issue is even more of an annoyance,<br>since it not only lengthens build times but adds a bunch of modified<br>files to the unstaged list, which I then have to select and do 'commit'<br>-> 'reverse changes' on to clear.<br><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #ad7fa8; padding-left: 1ex;">On 2020-09-30 21:11, Lyndon Brown wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #8ae234; padding-left: 1ex;"> minor update:<br> - moved webvtt .igitignore entries to webvtt folder.<br> - added one for new json module.<br><br> attached, or:<br> <a href="https://code.videolan.org/jnqnfe/vlc/-/tree/build">https://code.videolan.org/jnqnfe/vlc/-/tree/build</a><br><br> previews to follow.<hr> vlc-devel mailing list<br> To unsubscribe or modify your subscription options:<br> <a href="https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel">https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel</a><br><br></blockquote><hr>vlc-devel mailing list<br>To unsubscribe or modify your subscription options:<br><a href="https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel">https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel</a><br></blockquote><hr>vlc-devel mailing list<br>To unsubscribe or modify your subscription options:<br><a href="https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel">https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel</a><br><br></blockquote><hr>vlc-devel mailing list<br>To unsubscribe or modify your subscription options:<br><a href="https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel">https://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/vlc-devel</a></pre></blockquote></div><br>-- <br>Envoyé de mon appareil Android avec Courriel K-9 Mail.
