Ignore ELPA files in recentf

270 Views Asked by At

I update from ELPA/MELPA regularly. Unfortunately, the files the Emacs package manager manipulates show up in my recentf list, basically making it useless since it's always full from whatever files were updated, and not files that I actually care about. How can I fix this?

See user options recentf-exclude, recentf-keep, recentf-auto-cleanup, and command recentf-cleanup.

The first two options let you exclude and include files that satisfy certain predicates or whose names match certain patterns, respectively.
