1. Wildcard Matching
An include pattern starts with "+", and an exclude pattern starts with "-". Patterns may contain wildcard characters "*" which matches a path string of any length, and "?" matches
a single character. Note that both "*" and "?" will match any character including the path separator "/".
An include pattern starts with "+", and an exclude pattern starts with "-". Patterns may contain wildcard characters "\*" which matches a path string of any length, and "?" matches
a single character. Note that both "\*" and "?" will match any character including the path separator "/".
The path separator is always a "/", even on Windows.
When matching a path against a list of patterns, the path is compared with the part after "+" or "-", one pattern at a time. Therefore, the order of the patterns is significant. If a match with an include pattern is found, the path is said to be included without further comparisons. If a match with an exclude pattern is found, the path is said to be excluded without further comparison. If a match is not found, the path will be excluded if all patterns are include patterns, but included otherwise.
Patterns ending with a "/" apply to directories only, and patterns not ending with a "/" apply to files only.
Patterns ending with "*" and "?", however, apply to both directories and files. When a directory is excluded, all files and subdirectories
Patterns ending with "\*" and "?", however, apply to both directories and files. When a directory is excluded, all files and subdirectories
under it will also be excluded. Therefore, to include a subdirectory, all parent directories must be explicitly included.
For instance, the following pattern list doesn't do what is intended, since the `foo` directory will be excluded so the `foo/bar` will never be visited:
