[TxMt] Textmate Freezes when a Subversion project contains a symlink pointing to itself

[joeowen]

Hi Allan,

I appreciate the reply.  I'm not super savvy with regular expressions; I'm
trying to exclude the symbolic link "mybucks" that exists in the root of my
project.  

Here's the original expression that existed in the file exclusion field.
!(/\.(?!htaccess)[^/]*|\.(tmproj|o|pyc)|/Icon\r|/svn-commit(\.[2-9])?\.tmp)$

Here's my attempts; all have failed, resulting in a beachball.
!(/\.(?!htaccess)[^/]*|\.(tmproj|o|pyc)|mybucks|/Icon\r|/svn-commit(\.[2-9])?\.tmp)$
!(/\.(?!htaccess)[^/]*|\.(tmproj|o|pyc)|/mybucks|/Icon\r|/svn-commit(\.[2-9])?\.tmp)$
!(/\.(?!htaccess)[^/]*|\.(tmproj|o|pyc)|\/mybucks|/Icon\r|/svn-commit(\.[2-9])?\.tmp)$

When I remove the symbolic link from the directory, Textmate is fine, so I
know that it's the only file that is causing the problem.

Thanks,

Joe
