Feature Request: "add to ingnore list" in commit dialog

Hi all

 

I’ll like to request a feature which would make it possible to exclude (add to ignore list) directories/files directly out of the commit dialog. Like it is already supported by Tortoise. This would make life easier especially when importing new projects.

 

What do you think about this?

I have lately been hearing the opposite feedback, that we should remove almost all features like this from the commit dialog and make it more like the CVS dialog where it just lists your files and lets you type a commit message.&nbsp; I think this comes from people that have adopted the workflow of using the Synchronize view for most actions.&nbsp; In that scenario, the Synch view serves the purpose of those features and the commit just becomes a step where the message is all that is needed and the rest is just redundant.

I cannot say I am close to coding changes like this, but what do you think about that? ; For people that adopt this workflow, I do think it offers better usability.

As for your idea, to do something like that it would be doable, but a major change.&nbsp; Because it would mean we would also have to change the dialog to be listening for changes in the working copy and possibly updating the dialog as a result.&nbsp; This would be a major change in terms of complexity.

I do use both workflows. For 'foreign' projects i use the
syncronize 
view. For my own i use the commit dialog.
That said, i would miss any functionality that is now
present in both of it.
And i encourage you to add new functinality to the commit
dialog, 
especially the desired feature of "add to ingnore
list" in commit dialog.
