Description srini.mvaram

Hi,
I am using info/exclude in .git to hide files that should not be tracked by git and this is working fine with git command line version. However with egit and jgit it looks like the exclude file is not read and I see all the files listed in unstaged changes in staging view. 

I do see this code in WorkingTreeIterator but looks like the control does not hit this place.
>>
File exclude = fs.resolve(repository.getDirectory(), "info/exclude");
loadRulesFromFile(r, exclude);
>>
Can you please checkout this issue

Thanks
Srini

Fixed the title of this bug to reveal the issue also in the overview list.

Which EGit version are you using ?

Do you still see the issue in EGit 1.2?

If so, what is the name of the file and what is the exclude rule you have for it?
