Subject: gitignore - how to ignore only in current directory
Date: Sun, 23 May 2010 21:28:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTilGH-Z4IpgosqYPFCl3G2XsKDfAT3pH6vi-wuN8@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I want to ignore a particular file name in a particular directory.
However, the same filename may appear in subdirectories and in those
cases I do *not* want it ignored. The documentation seems to imply
that git will read up the directories looking for .gitignore files and
will ignore files that I need included.
Have I misunderstood this and/or how can this be done. Any
enlightenment appreciated!
