Quick Tip: Exclude Files and Folders from Source Control 16. June 2007 Comment (0) I recently had the problem that a directory called "Cache" was always adding new files automaticallyand adding them like crazy to our source control system. It was really annoying because we do notneed those cache files in source control and every developer had his own cache files, which alwayshad to be replaced. The simple solution is to make the folder hidden, this way it does not show upin visual studio (except you show hidden files) and this way it does not get added to the sourcecontrol system.Works with SourceSafe, Vault, Perforce and SubVersion.
