Hello, I would like to report a bug in the implementation of the --exclude-dir option in GNU grep 2.10 version.
If running > grep --exclude-dir "/hdd1/lib/udev/devices/" -r eads /hdd1 It will still examine /hdd1/lib/udev/devices. However, if running > grep --exclude-dir "/hdd1/lib/udev/devices" -r eads /hdd1 Then, that folder I wanted to include is actually ignored. I think that the extra slash at the end, while unnecessary, must not break down the ---exclude-dir feature. Happy to help fix the bug! Best, Khaled.
