Don't import '.svn' folder into projects (by default)

Running oXygen 7.2 under Linux, when I import a directory tree into a project, oXygen imports the '.svn' subdirectories as well. This means that when I go to validate the imported directory, oXygen throws up lots of complaints about the files in the '.svn' directories.
It would be better if oXygen did not import any .svn and CVS directories (by default, anyway). Thanks,
Cheers, Tony.

Hello,
Import the directory tree as linked directory with the Link To External Folders action and set a directory filter pattern with the Filters toolbar button. Is this what you need ?

That will do as an interim solution. I actually like "Import" because it lets me remove any arbitrary files that I decided to exclude from the project, without needing to set up complex filtering. Thanks,
Cheers, Tony.

Hello,
In a future version of <oXygen/> we will allow ignoring sets of files/directories also for regular imported directories, not only for linked directories. I think the easiest way would be to allow the specification of one or more filters for such files/directories at the time when the import action is performed on the Project tree, with .svn and CVS filters set by default.
