Dear Git gurus,
It seems that there is some inconsistency in output of git while it is
ignoring files:
if a single path within ignored directory is provided -- git outputs
the file path. If multiple files are provided (some of which aren't
ignored) -- git outputs only the ignored directory name:
% git --version
git version 2.10.2
% git status
On branch master
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
bu
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
% cat .gitignore
*.me
% git add blah.me/bu
The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files:
blah.me/bu
Use -f if you really want to add them.
% git add blah.me/bu bu
The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files:
blah.me
Use -f if you really want to add them.
% git status
On branch master
Changes to be committed:
(use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
new file: bu
So note that in the first case it reports "blah.me/bu" whenever in the
second -- only "blah.me".
P.S. Please CC us in your replies.
With best regards,
