Description Ketan Padegaonkar CLA 2010-06-24 00:13:48 EDT
I've marked a few files in .gitignore (at git root). These files however are shown in the same way as other untracked files by egit. This behavior is quite confusing, probably even misleading.

Would it be possible to apply a different overlay(or not apply one at all) in such cases?

Command line git tells me I've got no outgoing changes:

storm:~/projects/oss/swtbot git (master)$ git st
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
