Re: [git-users] .gitignore question
From: wtriker@gmail.com I have some files that I want to ignore but can't seem to come up with the correct format. There are multiple sub-directories with the same path that I want to ignore. Specifically, the are 'someupper path/system/cache' and all start with 'cache.'. The .gitignore entry I am using is: system/cache/cache.* But that does not work. What is the correct syntax to ignore these files? One solution is to put cache in each someupper path/system/.gitignore file. I would start by reading the rules for how gitignore entries are interpreted, which is in the gitignore manual page. In particular, I see: Two consecutive asterisks (**) in patterns matched against full pathname may have special meaning: · A leading ** followed by a slash means match in all directories. For example, **/foo matches file or directory foo anywhere, the same as pattern foo. **/foo/bar matches file or directory bar anywhere that is directly under directory foo. This suggests the answer is to put **/system/cache in the top-level .gitignore file. Dale -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] .gitignore question
Can you ignore all subdirectories inside cache directory? If so, just write cache in your .gitignore file. Git will ignore all cache directories independently where it was. It can be in project root or inside a directory.
