vc-ign - VC Ignore Emacs Package

Author
Wolfgang Scherer

Quickstart

• Load vc-ign.el to augment Emacs package vc with VC ignore facilities.

• The keyboard shortcuts are bound to prefix z in vc-dir-mode and C-x v z in other modes. The prefix can be customized with vc-ign-prefix.

• Press z i in vc-dir-mode or C-x v z i in dired-mode to ignore marked files. In other modes, a file is read from the minibuffer. With a prefix argument, the files are removed from the ignore file.

• Press z p in vc-dir-mode or C-x v z p in dired-mode for a prompt with the current file as properly quoted pattern. In other modes, a pattern is read from the minibuffer. With a prefix argument, the pattern is removed from the ignore file

• Press z c in vc-dir-mode or C-x v z c in other modes to push the current filename relatve to the repository root onto the kill-ring. With a prefix argument, escape and anchor the filename.

• Press z w in vc-dir-mode or C-x v z w in other modes to push the marked filenames relatve to the repository root onto the kill-ring. With a prefix argument, escape and anchor the filenames. The filenames are concatenated with a newline.

• Several directory/filename copy commands are mapped as shortcuts:

  Key sequence	description
  z d d	copy directory to kill-ring
  z d b	copy basename of current file to kill-ring
  z d f	copy filename of current file to kill-ring
  z o d	copy directory of other window to kill-ring
  z o b	copy basename of current file in other window to kill-ring
  z o f	copy filename of current file in other window to kill-ring
