Where does "_build" come from?
Where does "_build" come from?
I thought I saw somewhere in the docs where _build is suggested as a separate build directory. That's what I use anyway.
I guess it's only used for in travis.yml and maybe the mingw build?
Ah, just close this if you don't think it's relevant.
I think it might have meant an out-of-tree directory, I don't think you gain much if its in-tree :)
I couldn't find any reference in the docs, but maybe @codebrainz will, he seems to be a better googler than me :)
I don't know about the mingw builds (@eht16 ?), but since Travis will never push changes back to the repo it doesn't matter there.
@andy5995 if this is the directory you use to build in (good idea to build "out of tree"), you can use:
```bash $ echo "/_build/" >> .git/info/exclude ``` And it will ignore it for you locally. I do this sometimes with a `.misc` and `.build` for random files I don't want to check in and for building "out of tree".
Closed #2191.

Great, thanks @codebrainz
