Projectile is an [[id:5f1df0e1-384f-4685-ae1e-fec2431b04e5][emacs]] Package that can be used to manage project files.  The package is installed as follows:



#+begin_src elisp

(use-package projectile

  :ensure t

  init

  (projectile-mode +1)

  :bind (:map projectile-mode-map

              ("C-c p" . projectile-command-map)))

(setq projectile-project-search-path '("~/Latex/latex-repo/"))

(setq projectile-indexing-method 'native)

#+end_src



However, the data tree is very cluttered, so folders and files in the .projectile file can be excluded from the index.  This is done with the command: -<folder> (without<>) or -*.<end>.  This refers to the relative [[id:673d1cb1-536b-42f1-a046-40a8937c4283][root]] path starting from this file.  The file path from the projectile-project-search-path has to be found with the command

projectile-discover-projects-in-search-path.
