With a '/' at the beginning you pin the pattern to the beginning. You don't use "/" at the end of directory names, so i'm not sure if the correct one is: /aaa or /foo/aaa With a '/' at the end (... source/ target/ ...) it's the first one, in your case it might be the other one. -- Matthias -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
