v7.2: Exclude files extensions don't work

[kha]

When I dod the Add Files/Folders, exclude the following files:
*.pdf; *.jpg; *.gif; *.tiff; *.png; *.doc; *.docx; *.zip; *.ppt; *.pptx; *.xls; *.xlxs; *.mdb; *.JPG; *.GIF; *.wmv; *.WMV;


The .jpg and .gif files are still added to the repository.

Did i miss anything? Why the exclusion doesn't work?

Are you adding using the Vault GUI client or Vault integrated with something else?

The excludes are for when the parent folder is added. You can override the exclusions by specifically selecting an item and adding it.

When adding with Visual Studio, VS makes the decision based on its own algorithm on what goes into source control and will override the Vault settings by specifically adding it.

I am using Vault client

The excludes are for when the parent folder is added. You can override the exclusions by specifically selecting an item and adding it.

My folder structure:
Data/bin
Data/images (contains .gif, .jpg, .png files)
Data/dll
Data/docs (contains pdf and .doc files)
Data/movies (contains .wmv files)

I selected Data folder (everything below it was checked as well). With the exclusion list, I expect none of the file under Data/images /docs /movies will be added in, but apparently they were still added.

Were there no grayed out checks? Can you send me a screenshot of what you are seeing?
