Blacklisting in views

Asked by Javier Collado

Hello,

I have a branch in which I made some changes to a configuration file that are intended to be used only locally so I don't want those changes to be committed or pushed. I think that using 'bzr view' to forget about the changes in that file would be nice. However, it seems that 'bzr view' only allows whitelisting, while in this case I would be interested in blacklisting.

I guess that the solution would be to whitelist all the files except the one that I'd like to be excluded, but I wanted to ask just to make sure that there isn't any other better solution. Thanks.

Best regards,
    Javier

This is commonly requested and we'd like to support it in future.
