Is it possible to disable the automatic adding of new files to TFS in Eclipse without using the .tpignore configuration file? I would like to distinguish which file of a folder is added to TFS. For example the TFS plug-in tries to add the temporary file created when a version controlled excel sheet is opened. For me this is currently the biggest issue with the TFS Everywhere plug-in.

The most effective and convenient way is using the .tpignore file which in TFS 2010 and prior. In TFS 2012, with local workspaces, Visual Studio and the TFS plug-in for Eclipse have standardized on the new .tfignore file.

The terminology used by most source control providers, including TFS, is ignored.
You could also add the file format in the list defined files which are ignored in TFS by default.
To distinguish which file of a folder is added to TFS you could use some third-party tool such as TFS power tools, the file in TFS will have a green small arrow in the lower left corner of the file, just as the screenshot in my reply of this question.
