Subject: Can I exclude .gitmodules (or any file) from git-format-patch?
Date: Thu, 4 Feb 2010 16:10:04 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ed82fe3e1002041410u65c2332atf5493f751fac8c17@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Is there a way I can get git-format-patch to ignore specific files?
Specifically, I want it to ignore .gitmodules. This file is changed
whenever a submodule is added or removed, but I don't want git
format-patch to pick it up. I already specify --ignore-submodules, so
I was expecting format-patch to ignore *everything* related to
sobmodules.
Perhaps --ignore-submodules should also ignore any changes to .gitmodules?
(Why is .gitmodules not in the .git directory, anyway?)
