The Database defaults lists the mapping rules of files that are ignored. The list is set by the CM Administrator and shared by all users. You cannot add to or delete from the defaults list.
To add to the My additional patterns list, type patterns directly in the scroll box, one pattern per line only. To remove a pattern, highlight it and delete it.
Additionally, you can use pattern syntax values to further customize filters. The syntax is like standard wildcard strings. Thus, * matches 0 or more characters of any value, ? matches one character of any value, and \\ (Windows) and / (UNIX) separates directories.
For example, a directory name followed by \\* matches all contents of a directory and its subdirectories. (The wildcard applies at the end of the string.)
The following examples show ways to customize filters by using patterns:C:\\ccm_wa\\mydb\\myproj-me\\myproj\\tempfiles\\*
tempfiles\\*
*.html
test\\*.java
WHEN %name =~ '.*\.[Tt][Mm][Pp]' IGNORE
WHEN %name = 'core' && not %is_dir IGNORE
To share filters with team members, have the CM administrator add them to the database defaults.
You specify additional ignore patterns for an individual project to allow the specification of a set of regular expressions to be ignored by the sync work area operation.
In the root directory of the project, create a controlled file called _synergy_ignore_file_pattern.txt.
This file is read using UTF-8 encoding. The syntax of this file is the same as the syntax used in the GUI Options dialog to define patterns to be ignored.
