[PATCH 0/2] gitignore, re-inclusion fix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is an old problem. I attempted once [1] and then was reminded [2]
with some more comments on the original patch. Let's try again.

The problem is this .gitignore currently does not work, but it should:

/abc
!/abc/def/ghi

This patch fixes that by realizing that the last rule may re-include
something in abc/def so it does not exclude "abc" and "abc/def"
outright to give the last rule a chance to match.

  dir.c: make last_exclude_matching_from_list() run til the end
  dir.c: don't exclude whole dir prematurely if neg pattern may match
