Patch Set 4:

Hi,

What are the GITM archives? I found one mention of gitignore in egit-dev, no mention of unaccepted suggestions to learn from.

Sorry to keep asking questions, but I want to make sure I'm on the same frequency. You require a .gitignore handler that:

1. Exists in JGit
2. Implements a project-wide ignore cache
3. Uses resource listeners to determine when the cache needs to be updated
4. Has rigorous unit tests to ensure it behaves exactly the same as C Git
5. (Implied) Documents compatibility tests

I'd be happy to do this, if that's what you want :) I still have somewhere the test harness I used to make test results, would be a good start for JUnit tests. If not, what have I misunderstood?

Thanks!
