Information about .vsphpignore
If you have large projects with thousands of files you should read the following article.
In many cases, most of the files inside the project directory are of no interest because they are images or other files you don't need to edit for your project. Still if you have a lot of them, it will slow down the loading process. To avoid this problem VS.Php provides a mechanism to ignore directories while loading a project. Simply create a file in the root project directory named .vsphpignore
In it, enter the name of any subdirectory you want to ignore. The path can be relative or absolute. For example if you have an images directory with thousands of files, simply put the directory name in this file and it will be ignore.
You can also also ignore subdirectories like this:
folder1\folder2
This will ignore the sub folder2 but not folder1. Make sure you always use backslashes and not slashes when you enter the folder names. Even when using remote projects.
