I'm working on several large LabVIEW projects and I'm using GIT.
GIT creates a hidden folder named ".git" within the repository root path which usually also the LV projects root path. All the different file versions are stored there.This leads to the situation that the number of files within the .git folder is much higher than the number of files which are directly used by the LabVIEW project.
If LabVIEW is missing a file or if a mass compilation is started in the project root, LabVIEW searches also within this hidden .git folder which leads to much much longer processing times.
There are several possibilities to change the behavior in an appropriate way:
1) ignoring hidden folders in general
2) ignoring .git and other special folders automatically
3) ignoring folders (and files) if they have been set to a blacklist before (how about a ".lvignore" file similar to ".gitignore"?)
