Version 1.5.3 (1215).

I have an Xcode project directory, which a TextMate project file encompasses. The directory contains a "build" subdirectory. It would be very undesirable to include that directory (and a couple of others, such as .xclassmodels, also some binaries like a Stuffit archive) in the TextMate project, as project-wide searches take much, much longer when (I assume) the search interrogates all the files in the build tree.

So I select the build folder in the project list and press backspace. TextMate asks if I want a remove-from-project or a delete-file. Remove, please.

Shortly thereafter (it may be related to deactivating and reselecting TextMate), the build folder appears in the list again. Grz.

I have double-checked that I am dealing with a TextMate project file, and not a directory window.

Some of the re-added files and folders have been modified while TextMate is running; most have not.

I had used a directory window before switching to a project.

I originally populated the project by dragging the Xcode project directory into the file list.

What am I missing? Or what is TextMate missing? It may be my problem, as searching for "project file reincludes folders" turns up nothing in a list-archive search.
