Question

Should I track trcss and trvset files in RH 9?

Hi all,

We recently upgraded to RH 9 from RH 7. I see these two file types in RH 9 that I'm not sure what they are/do. .trcss and .trvset. Do they need to be tracked in our source control system? Or should they be ignored? We're using mercurial for our source countrol sytem. I also see files with dollar signs in their files names showing up temproarily--so I'm assuming those are just temporary files and can be ignored.

Thanks in advance

Jared

They are not files that I can recall having seen in any RoboHelp project so I am thinking they are related to source control or something else in your environment. Can you open one in a text editor to get any clues?

Thanks Peter. I didn't think to check that. I'll do some digging and find out.

Alright. I asked our mercurial know-it-alls if this was part of our source control and they said it wasn't:

"Those don’t look like any mercurial file that I know of.  I’m pretty sure that anything mercurial related will begin with a ‘.’ character and be stored in the root folder of the repository."

Looking at my RH project's directory I see this:

There are a lot of file types there that I don't recognize:

.trb, .trcss, .trf, .tfglol, .tridxl, .trk, .trl, .trs, .trt, .tctocl, .trvset

Are some of these from RH 9? Anyone else see these file types in your RH 9 projects?

I'm focusing on these .trcss and .trvset since detected as "new" files by our source control tool.

The .trcss file in a text editor just contains the name of the css file used in my project:

The .trvset is empty:

A google search on these doesn't yield good results either. Any other suggestions?
