Hello all,
I have some bizarre behavior I cannot explain. Worse, I've had a hard
time coming up with a minimal test-case for it.
I have the following two aliases:
ig = check-ignore
igv = !git ig --verbose
I use them to verify git-ignore rules occasionally. Today, I was
working on a project where git igv * kept failing (exit code 1,
indicating none of the provided files are ignored). However, when I do
git check-ignore --verbose *, I get the expected output.
You'll even see in the GIT_TRACE outputs above that one behaves very
differently from the other for unknown reasons
