Re: [PATCH] Add git-find-new-files to spot files added to the tree, but not the repository

Most users will probably want to make clean before using this for real significant changes, as it does such a good job that it finds binaries that just got built. You really want to run file on the files. We almost certainly don't want to add binary executables, object files etc etc to the tree, so why even show them? You should also filter the list by the ignore file. And I'd suggest ignoring dot-files by default, for example (maybe add a -a flag to disable that, the same way ls does).

Oh, and btw, maybe you didn't realize that git-ls-files --others already basically does what your script does? Without any filtering - it was meant to be run from a script, so something like for i in $(git-ls-files --others) do if [ ! match_ignore $i ]; then case $(file -b $i) ELF*) ;; *) echo $i ;; esac fi done was what I was thinking of.

You _ought_ to be able to just say: $ git-ls-files --others --exclude-from=exclude pattern file and be done with it. Also please see the thread about Cogito and StGIT's use of .gitignore and .git/exclude files. The current implementation of git-ls-files exclude mechanism may have rooms for improvements; the last time I checked, it only did the matching of patterns against filename without leading directories). The world will be a better place if somebody extends it, instead of working around its limitation. I may be tempted to doing it myself, but I'm in the middle of something else, so ... +#find . -name .git -type d -prune -o -type f -print \ +#| grep -v -e .tree1 -e .tree2 \ +#| sed -e s/^\.\/// \ +#| sort .tree1 +#git-ls-files | grep -v -e .tree1 -e .tree2 \ +#| sort .tree2 +#diff -u .tree1 .tree2 It does not matter since the above is just an example and I think you should be able to just use ls-files --others, but just FYI, you could have written comm -23 .tree1 .tree2 above instead of diff -u. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
