Because the file is _not_ temporary, that is an archive of bits I have removed from Attic files and needs to be stored someplace for a much longer time than any of those locations would be reasonable for. Also those areas don't cause the file to end up in my ~ncvs, and on my backup tapes. CTM needs an ignore file list just like sup has :-) And/or a scan control file to say ~ncvs/{src,ports,CVSROOT}. > Btw., Poul, this accident uncovered a small bug in CTM: my ~cvs has > not been owned by user cvs, hence the file attic.list could not be > created in the first place.
