Customizing the folders and file extensions automatically excluded
When adding items to source control a list of excluded folders as well as file extensions is shown. You can customize those defaults in the registry.
Matthew Mitrik has the details:
If the add operation is successfully completed, the list will be saved to the registry.
Order of finding masks to filter:
- HKCU\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\[Version]\TeamFoundation\SourceControl\AddOptions\ExcludeMasks
- HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\[Version]\TeamFoundation\SourceControl\AddOptions\ExcludeMasks
