Loggerhead serving a directory of branches, can't hide a directory that's not a branch

[Marty]

Not sure if this a bug or just not documented.

I'm using loggerhead to serve RANCID branches. Providing the directory of branches as the arguement to serve-branches works fine.

However there is a RANCID log directory in there as well and I would like to hide it. There was no .bazaar in that directory and it doesn't seem right to add one just to supply 'http_serve = False' parameter (but of course I tried it and it didn't appear to work).

You could probably do it in ~/.bazaar/locations.conf for the user
Loggerhead runs as...

Matt's right, the intent is that you should be able to use locations.conf for this. Please let us know if it works!

Have given that a try but it doesn't appear to work after restarting loggerheadd
