http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43526 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-10-02 07:13 ------- The way I recall it, it was to stop ongoing maintenance of the hard-coded default exclude list, since it's something that changes too often, and can't grow on to include all non-user files generated by editors, SCM systems, etc... We can't remove files from the list from BC reasons, but we shouldn't grow it any longer either, and thus the <defaultexcludes> task was born. Gives the user all the flexibility he needs. Sure CVS and SVN are "special" because they are the main OSS SCMs, but mainly they were added before <defaultexcludes>. Add Hg to the list if you really want, but I don't view this change as necessary given what you can do with Ant already. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
