Subject: Bug report : gitattribute export-ignore behavior does not match documentation
Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2012 12:24:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201212011224.55686.avila.jn@gmail.com> (raw)
Tested on latest maint and master.
The 'export-ignore' gitattribute is documented as behaving on a pattern, just
like in .gitignore.
In repo where I have a tree like this:
.gitattributes
figures/
fr/figures/
I want to remove from archive all the figures directories. So I added
figures/ export-ignore
to the top level .gitattributes file.
but then:
$ git check-attr -a fr/figures
$ git check-attr -a figures
$
If I change the line in .gitattributes to :
figures export-ignore
I get the correct result, but I am not sure to exclude only directories.
Am I wrong somewhere?
Thank you.
