Hello, this problem came up when I was editing vmlinux.lds.S in the kernel tree. because we have "vmlinux*" in the toplevel .gitignore in linus's tree, all vmlinux.lds.S under arch/$(ARCH)/kernel/ is affected. for kernel, it might as easier to remove "*" from the exp. but I was wandering if it's worth to have an expression for gitignore to handle "a regex for the current dir only"? comments? -- yashi - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
