Rather than making an option specific to one particular tool, I think the correct way to do this would be to break it in two: * Query $SOME_TOOL for a set of file names. In your case, this would be something like ‘git clean --dry-run -dX’. * Use the output from the above command to specify which files Flake should ignore. The ‘flake8’ help shows we have a ‘--exclude’ option available. So it remains only to transform the output from ‘determine-files-to-ignore’ into the format expected by ‘flake8 --exclude’. But please, not a special one-tool-only option. -- \ “Don't fight forces, use them.” —Richard Buckminster Fuller, | `\ _Shelter_, 1932 | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ code-quality mailing list code-quality@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/code-quality
