-However, for historical reasons, some settings affect how you work with versioned files. These are <tt>allow-symlinks</tt>, <tt>binary-glob</tt>, <tt>crnl-glob</tt>, <tt>ignore-glob</tt>, <tt>empty-dirs</tt> and <tt>manifest</tt>. The most important is <tt>ignore-glob</tt> which specifies which files should be ignored when looking for unmanaged files with the <tt>extras</tt> command.

If you set the value of a setting using the <tt>settings</tt> command as well as a versioned file, the versioned setting will take precedence. A warning will be displayed.
