In the Eclipse environment, you can specify name patterns that,
if matched, prevent the named resource from being considered for addition
to source control.
Before you begin
This option is available only with the Rational
ClearCase Remote Client for Eclipse.
- From the main Eclipse menu bar, select .
- In the left pane of the Preferences window, expand the Team category
and select Ignored Resources. A list of name patterns
is displayed against which resources will be compared before they are considered
as candidates for version control.
- Optional: To remove a name pattern from the list of
patterns to be ignored, clear the check box to the left of the pattern.
- Optional: To include a name pattern on the list of
patterns to be ignored, select the check box to the left of the pattern.
- Optional: To add a new pattern, click Add.
