[Catalyst-dev] Cookbook patch showing basic setup_components usage

[Michiel Ootjers]

Heheh, more a commercial system (BitKeeper). In a BitKeeper repository you
will find the directories BitKeeper and SCCS (the directory BitKeeper is only
available in the repository root, but for completeness).

except => qr/SCCS|BitKeeper/

is my line in the config.

Michiel Ootjers
