File Types

Mergeable files

The Mergeable Files box lists the file types that can be merged and therefore can be changed by two users at the same time.

Changing a file type in this list updates the properties for all files of that type to reflect the values in the list.

For example, if you add a file type of .foo to the list, all existing files of type .foo are updated to be mergeable. If .foo is deleted from the list, all files of type foo will no longer be mergeable. File types that were not changed are not affected.

Removing all mergeable file types from the list for a repository will reset the default values.

File Exclusions

The File Exclusions box lists file name patterns that should not be included by default when adding a folder to Vault Standard.

Changing a file pattern in this list updates the file exclusion list in all clients.

Folder Exclusions

The Folder Exclusions box lists folder name patterns that should not be included by default when adding a folder to Vault Standard. The folder pattern applies to any recursive subfolder of the folder you are attempting to add.

Changing a folder pattern in this list updates the folder exclusion list in all clients.

EOL Conversion

The EOL Conversion allows you to select the EOL to be applied to mergeable files only. The list includes:

None

Native

Windows CRLF

Unix LF

Mac CR

Note that this does not change existing files in the database. It only affects new files that are added to Vault Standard.

The default EOL type for mergeable files is Native and for binary files is None.
