| <h2>NAME</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <p>gitignore - | |
| Specifies intentionally untracked files to ignore | |
| </p> | |
| </div> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2>SYNOPSIS</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <p>$GIT_DIR/info/exclude, .gitignore</p> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <p>A <tt>gitignore</tt> file specifies intentionally untracked files that | |
| git should ignore. Each line in a <tt>gitignore</tt> file specifies a | |
| pattern.</p> | |
| <p>When deciding whether to ignore a path, git normally checks | |
| <tt>gitignore</tt> patterns from multiple sources, with the following | |
| order of precedence:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| Patterns read from the file specified by the configuration | |
| variable <em>core.excludesfile</em>. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| Patterns read from <tt>$GIT_DIR/info/exclude</tt>. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| Patterns read from a <tt>.gitignore</tt> file in the same directory | |
| as the path, or in any parent directory, ordered from the | |
| deepest such file to a file in the root of the repository. | |
| These patterns match relative to the location of the | |
| <tt>.gitignore</tt> file. A project normally includes such | |
| <tt>.gitignore</tt> files in its repository, containing patterns for | |
| files generated as part of the project build. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p>The underlying git plumbing tools, such as | |
| <a href="git-ls-files.html">git-ls-files(1)</a> and <a href="git-read-tree.html">git-read-tree(1)</a>, read | |
| <tt>gitignore</tt> patterns specified by command-line options, or from | |
| files specified by command-line options. Higher-level git | |
| tools, such as <a href="git-status.html">git-status(1)</a> and <a href="git-add.html">git-add(1)</a>, | |
| use patterns from the sources specified above.</p> | |
| <p>Patterns have the following format:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| A blank line matches no files, so it can serve as a separator | |
| for readability. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| A line starting with # serves as a comment. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| An optional prefix <em>!</em> which negates the pattern; any | |
| matching file excluded by a previous pattern will become | |
| included again. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| If the pattern does not contain a slash <em>/</em>, git treats it as | |
| a shell glob pattern and checks for a match against the | |
| pathname without leading directories. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| Otherwise, git treats the pattern as a shell glob suitable | |
| for consumption by fnmatch(3) with the FNM_PATHNAME flag: | |
| wildcards in the pattern will not match a / in the pathname. | |
| For example, "Documentation/*.html" matches | |
| "Documentation/git.html" but not | |
| "Documentation/ppc/ppc.html". A leading slash matches the | |
| beginning of the pathname; for example, "/*.c" matches | |
| "cat-file.c" but not "mozilla-sha1/sha1.c". | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p>An example:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git-status | |
| [...] | |
| # Untracked files: | |
| [...] | |
| # Documentation/foo.html | |
| # Documentation/gitignore.html | |
| # file.o | |
| # lib.a | |
| # src/internal.o | |
| [...] | |
| $ cat .git/info/exclude | |
| # ignore objects and archives, anywhere in the tree. | |
| *.[oa] | |
| $ cat Documentation/.gitignore | |
| # ignore generated html files, | |
| *.html | |
| # except foo.html which is maintained by hand | |
| !foo.html | |
| $ git-status | |
| [...] | |
| # Untracked files: | |
| [...] | |
| # Documentation/foo.html | |
| [...]</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>Another example:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ cat .gitignore | |
| vmlinux* | |
| $ ls arch/foo/kernel/vm* | |
| arch/foo/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | |
| $ echo '!/vmlinux*' >arch/foo/kernel/.gitignore</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>The second .gitignore prevents git from ignoring | |
| <tt>arch/foo/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S</tt>.</p> | |
