hg local ignore

Question

I could have sworn there was a way to keep a local ignore file in an hg repo, i.e. a file similar in function to .hgignore, but not checked into the repo. This could be used to ignore changes to an IDE project file if different IDEs are being used, for example. I'm having trouble finding how it's done. Does anyone recall the details?

Answer 1

Just make an .hgignore file and add .hgignore to the .hgignore file itself.

Answer 2

Nevermind. This is what I'm looking for.
