Hello,
I would like to ignore certain filename patterns that contain spaces
The specific example I'm interested in concerns Microsoft Windoze.
Following a copy of my_file.txt, I might then have
I would like to add an entry in the config file as follows:
[miscellany]
Now, obviously that doesn't work, as the space is a separator
[miscellany]
Using these individually, they either fail to match the required file,
(I imagine that the svn:ignore property will have similar problems,
I do have a workaround, which is to use ? as follows:
[miscellany]
However, ? matches any single character, not just space.
An "improvement" is to use an inverted character class:
[miscellany]
and so on.
It would be good if it was possible to express matching a space
If not, please consider this a feature request.
Thanks,
Rob Hubbard.
