What pattern to exclude *any* directory called "bin"

[Bill Barry]

You could add all of that to a file called .hgignore in the root of your 
repository, you also don't need to ignore .hg (though I have seen the 
case made for ignoring .hg* to ignore the tags and hgignore file in 
queue repositories)

I am ignoring the same files with this .hgignore file:
--
syntax: glob
bin
obj
build
_UpgradeReport_Files
*.msi

syntax:regexp
[Uu][Pp][Gg][Rr][Aa][Dd][Ee][Ll][Oo][Gg]\.[Xx][Mm][Ll]

--
The regex is done because I need to ignore case (sometimes it comes out 
in a different case on a couple machines, I haven't figured out why). 
There is probably a better way to ignore case (some sort of case ignore 
group, in perl it would be (?i:upgradelog\.xml) but I don't know if that 
works in python and I haven't bothered to check).
