[platform-cvs-dev] .cvsignore not working

I have a feeling that this is a bug/issue that has been looming for
awhile, but am trying to get a sense for what the current state is on
it.

Basically, I believe the bug I'm referring to is this one:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=79869

More specifically, cvs files added to the .cvsignore file are not
ignored as I expected they would be. The files you requested to be
ignored still appear in your sync view and still have delta
decorators. Whether this is by design, or due to some core cvs server
flaw, or just a bug that's not a huge priority I can't tell, but it's
been around a long while.

Can some one shed some light on this bug? Why it appears, whether it's
in the queue for a fix or not, and/or whether there's a workaround?

Many thanks -

Noah
