Frankly, it's a pity that they use _darcs instead of .darcs. That would make much more sense... But oh well.

I'd prefer to have a more generic fix to that problem, though. Maybe you can look into it? Otherwise we can add this, but if some other weird vcs appear, we'll want to exclude it from the project too.

Unfortunately for me, unlike git or mercurial, darcs is using a _darcs directory to hold all repo data, and kdevelop is filtering only hidden files (ie. those starting with a dot), so the Quick open was rendered useless as it listed tons of _darcs/something files that I certainly didn't want to edit by hand.
