Oh, and by the way, if you really dislike building out of source, you can still add all of the extra ignore rules in octave/.hg/hgrc in a file specified by the ui.ignore configuration option:

I very intentionally crafted hgignore to not ignore all the unnecessary files that get created when building in-source. That way, if you decide to build in-source, "hg purge" will clean up the files for the build that need to be cleaned up, but leave the files that have to be in the build tree after bootstrapping it.

I'm going to reject this patch. Instead, you should build out of source. Make an external build directory, cd into, and do

Also, consult etc/HACKING from the Octave tree.

I thought I'd offer you the .hgignore file I'm now using. Now my hg GUI never bugs me about the various intermediate files the Octave build generates.

Take a look at it to make sure I'm not ignoring something important. It's possible there are cases where one of my ignore patterns matches a file that is already in the index (a case which I believe HG handles properly).
