How to ignore
#*# - emacs lock files (e.g. #program.cc#)
.* - hidden files created by system (e.g .__afs2343)
so that git looks also into subdirectories?
When using e.g.
git rm --cached #*#
the subdirectories are ignored.
Hi @vveckaln,
Thank you for being here! Is this post informational or do you have a question? Apologies for not getting the context right away.
That is a question
Thanks for the clarification, I hope that I’m understanding the question correctly. If I understand what you’d like to accomplish is to recursively add an entire tree structure including those ignored, in this case git add --all should do the trick.
Additionally, another way to add a batch of files using ** syntax or wildcard patterns. For example:
git add **/*.js would add all js files including those in subdirectories.
