directory listing API |
|
===================== |
|
|
|
The directory listing API is used to enumerate paths in the work tree, |
|
optionally taking `.git/info/exclude` and `.gitignore` files per |
|
directory into account. |
|
|
|
Data structure |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
`struct dir_struct` structure is used to pass directory traversal |
|
options to the library and to record the paths discovered. The notable |
|
options are: |
|
|
|
`exclude_per_dir`:: |
|
|
|
The name of the file to be read in each directory for excluded |
|
files (typically `.gitignore`). |
|
|
|
`collect_ignored`:: |
|
|
|
Include paths that are to be excluded in the result. |
|
|
|
`show_ignored`:: |
|
|
|
The traversal is for finding just ignored files, not unignored |
|
files. |
|
|
|
`show_other_directories`:: |
|
|
|
Include a directory that is not tracked. |
|
|
|
`hide_empty_directories`:: |
|
|
|
Do not include a directory that is not tracked and is empty. |
|
|
|
`no_gitlinks`:: |
|
|
|
If set, recurse into a directory that looks like a git |
|
directory. Otherwise it is shown as a directory. |
|
|
|
The result of the enumeration is left in these fields:: |
|
|
|
`entries[]`:: |
|
|
|
An array of `struct dir_entry`, each element of which describes |
|
a path. |
|
|
|
`nr`:: |
|
|
|
The number of members in `entries[]` array. |
|
|
|
`alloc`:: |
|
|
|
Internal use; keeps track of allocation of `entries[]` array. |
|
|
|
|
|
Calling sequence |
|
---------------- |
|
|
|
Note: index may be looked at for .gitignore files that are CE_SKIP_WORKTREE |
|
marked. If you to exclude files, make sure you have loaded index first. |
|
|
|
* Prepare `struct dir_struct dir` and clear it with `memset(&dir, 0, |
|
sizeof(dir))`. |
|
|
|
* Call `add_exclude()` to add single exclude pattern, |
|
`add_excludes_from_file()` to add patterns from a file |
|
(e.g. `.git/info/exclude`), and/or set `dir.exclude_per_dir`. A |
|
short-hand function `setup_standard_excludes()` can be used to set up |
|
the standard set of exclude settings. |
|
|
|
* Set options described in the Data Structure section above. |
|
|
|
* Call `read_directory()`. |
|
|
|
* Use `dir.entries[]`. |
