Description (last modified by dkocher) (diff)
When uploading, there is no way to disable hidden files from being uploaded. So, all the nested .svn folders get uploaded with the files. For CVS, they aren't hidden, however it would be good if there was a way to tell it not to upload these directories also.

- Summary changed from .svn directories get uploaded, but are not viewable to Preference to exclude files from transfers (e.g. .svn)
Exclude some files and directories globally from download, upload, e.g.
- Exclude all CVS and .svn directories from downloads:
defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck queue.download.skip "CVS .svn"
- Exclude all CVS and .svn directories from uploads:
defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck queue.upload.skip "CVS .svn" These settings also apply to downloaded or uploaded using the synchronization feature.
Make these setting configurable in the Preferences.

A way to exclude files from being uploaded is described in http://cyberduck.ch/help/en/faq/index.html (see the bottom of the page). I take this as a user interface request to make this option available in the preferences of Cyberduck.
