Yeah, absolutely. Unclear wording from my end.
What I mean is:
We seem to want the vc backend no matter what. However - if I open dired in root and execute “project-find-files” all the stuff I want ignored is not. I get the fast backend, but may search a million obfuscated minified files.
I think what I want is to be able to say:
1. Use the vc backed “major-mode” project
2. Use the vc backed “major-modes” project
Not sure how this would be implemented most clearly, but maybe the “project-vc-ignores” defcustom in init.el is the magic wand here?
If so - this bug report could be reduced to “add documentation to clarify this” :)
