I seem to be having a problem with some of the exclude patterns and I’m not entirely sure why.
When we trigger a “special” or a “nightly” build, it increments the 4th number in the version and checks in two files for maintaining those values across subsequent builds. The files are:
\VersionInfo\VersionInfo.rc
\VersionInfo\Version.ini
(these are as shown in the “changeset” in Continua when a build gets triggered).
I want to ignore changesets that have only these files. I thought doing something like
\VersionInfo\*\*
in the “Exclude Pattern” would work, but that doesn’t seem to do it.
I’ve tried a ridiculous number of variations on this with no luck…so what am I missing?
Thanks,

Hi Jeremy,
Which version of Continua are you running? We recently implemented a fix for Subversion exclude patterns in [version 1.5.1.49](https://www.finalbuilder.com/downloads/continuaci/continuaci-version-history-v1.5) as we were previously including the full branch path when matching.I have tested the pattern \VersionInfo\*\* and it works as expected. If it still does not work for you after upgrading to version 1.5.1.49, can you send us a [debug log](http://wiki.finalbuilder.com/display/continua/Debug+Logging) so we can investigate further.

Dave,
We’re using 1.5.1.23 and using Surround SCM. Would the Subversion change also fix it for Surround?
Thanks
