It's currently not possible to exclude folders from committing. This feature would actually be an extension to the 'ignore' action, since 'ignore' ONLY works for newly created, not committed files&folders. But it is also needed to be able to not allow further commits on already committed folders. For example our 'logs' folder is committed on the cvs server, but i don't want to commit the newly created log-files to the cvs server and I also don't want to care about tagging each log file (each time I start the application) to be excluded from commit. So it would be helpful to just have a feature 'Exclude from commit' on folders in the cvs context menu.
Useful enhancement, we will need to talk to UI guys about this, may get into 6.0, we'll see. Main UI thing here is that we would need to somehow indicate that the folder is excluded from commit. Other thing is placement of the action. A checkbox menu item maybe?
Folders can now be excluded from commit. /shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/ui/syncview/Bundle.properties,v <-- Bundle.properties new revision: 1.17; previous revision: 1.16 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/ui/syncview/SyncTable.java,v <-- SyncTable.java new revision: 1.32; previous revision: 1.31 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/ui/syncview/ExcludeFromCommitAction.java,v <-- ExcludeFromCommitAction.java new revision: delete; previous revision: 1.8 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/Annotator.java,v <-- Annotator.java new revision: 1.42; previous revision: 1.41 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/ui/actions/commit/Bundle.properties,v <-- Bundle.properties new revision: 1.18; previous revision: 1.17 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/ui/actions/commit/ExcludeFromCommitAction.java,v <-- ExcludeFromCommitAction.java initial revision: 1.1 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/versioncontrol/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/VersioningAnnotationProvider.java,v <-- VersioningAnnotationProvider.java new revision: 1.6; previous revision: 1.5 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/versioncontrol/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/VersioningMainMenu.java,v <-- VersioningMainMenu.java new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2 /shared/data/ccvs/repository/versioncontrol/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/util/Utils.java,v <-- Utils.java new revision: 1.14; previous revision: 1.13

Does not seem to work in NB Dev 20071150200 .) Create Folder .) Right click for CVS context menu -> Exclude from Commit is not there
It must be there. Double check that your project is in CVS, you have the latest build, etc. If you are sure about it, then please reopen it again and take a screenshot of the relevant menu along with the explorer view + your IDE message log.
Yeah, right, I see it in nb 6.0M7
