Global ignore support in TFVC

Is it possible to have a global ignore file configured in TFVC. Similarly, for example, can git be configured to have a ~ / .gitignore file and configured as a global ignore file for all projects?

If you are using local workspaces, you can use .tfignore, which follows the same format as .gitignore.

Update. The exact usecase is not supported by TFVC as shown in the comments.

As with git, you have to put .gitignore

in every project root (git repository).

So, with TFVC, you need to put a .tfignore

solution in each root.



You can put .tfignore

in the root of the TFVS repository, but from my experience I cannot tell if it will take effect when it is not checked out into the local repository.
