Subject: git sparse checkout exclusions not working?
Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 09:35:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTinPg_jaxiF8yFtnf4BrT4fx-BQ=+A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
It seems like ! patterns in the sparse-checkout file don't exclude
individual files in a directory. Here's what I did:
git init
mkdir test1
echo "test1" test1/file1.txt
echo "test2" test1/file2.txt
echo "test3" test1/file3.txt
mkdir test2
echo "test2" test2/file1.txt
echo "test2" test2/file2.txt
echo "test2" test2/file3.txt
git add .
git commit -m "test"
git config core.sparseCheckout true
echo 'test1/' > .git/info/sparse-checkout
echo '!test1/file2.txt' >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
git checkout master --
The end result is like this:
test1
test1/file1.txt
test1/file2.txt
test1/file3.txt
The "test1" directory was included, but "test1/file2.txt" wasn't
excluded even though I added a ! pattern for it. The test2 directory
was correctly excluded so that makes me think sparse was working in
general, but just not respecting the ! pattern in this case.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
