Selecting resources to ignore in Rational Team Concert source control

When you create a project in Microsoft® Visual Studio, a number of files or folders are created that you might not want to share in Rational Team Concert™ source control. You can restrict these resources being checked-in to Rational Team Concert source control by ignoring them.

About this task

The list of resources to be ignored by Rational Team Concert source control is specified in the .jazzignore file. This file is typically placed in the project's root folder. The .jazzignore file can be in any subfolder. Rational Team Concert source control has predefined patterns to be ignored. You can also add more patterns to the list. You can add resources to the ignore list from the Solution Explorer tool window.

To add resources to the ignore list:

Procedure

  1. Select the resource from the Solution Explorer tool window.
  2. Either right-click the resource and click Add to Ignore List or click Team Concert > Jazz Source Control > Add to Ignore List.
  3. In the Add to Ignore List window, select whether you want to ignore the resource by its name, file extension, or pattern. You can also select whether you want to ignore the resource in its current local directory or in the entire solution directory.
  4. Click OK.
