This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Background: When using git there are ignored folders defined in `.gitignore`. It would be nice (optional) feature to automatically add this patterns to "Ignored Folders" project tab. Current Behavior: Currently we have to add ignored folders to `.gitignore` and then repeatedly in project properties. Expected Behavior: Assume option to import `.gitignore` is active. When creating project containing `.gitignore` - folders from `.gitignore` are added to project's "Ignored Folders".
Use case: 1. Create project folder from pre-defined setup, for instance with .gitignore 2. Create NB project with existing sources Current behavior: 3. Install packages. NB scans it all and/or starts uploading Expected: 3. Install packages. Folders for packages are ignored because they are in `.gitignore`.
