[rsync/rsync-patches.git] / filter.diff

After applying this patch and running configure, you MUST run this
command before "make":

    make proto

This patch adds the ability to merge rules into your excludes/includes
using a ". FILE" idiom.  If you specify a name without slashes, that
filename will be looked for in every subdirectory that rsync visits,
and its rules will affect the current directory and its subdirectories.

For example:

  rsync -av --exclude='. .excl' from/ to

The above will look for a file named ".excl" in every directory of the
hierarchy that rsync visits, and it will exclude (by default) names
based on the rules found therein.  If one of the .excl files contains
this:

  + *.c
  . .excl2
  . ./.excl3
  *.o

Then the file ".excl2" will also be read in the current dir, and all
subdirs of the current dir.  The file ".excl3" would just be read in
for the current dir because its name contained a slash.

+/* Each exclude_list_struct describes a singly-linked list by keeping track
+ * of both the head and tail pointers.  The list is slightly unusual in that
+ * a parent-dir's content can be appended to the end of the local list in a
+ * special way:  the last item in the local list has its "next" pointer set
+ * to point to the parent's list, but the local list's tail pointer points
+ * at the end of the local list.  Thus, if the local list is empty, the head
+ * will be pointing at the parent content but the tail will be NULL.  To
+ * help you visualize this, here are the possible list arrangements:
+ *
+ * Completely Empty                     Local Content Only
+ * ==================================   ====================================
+ * head -> NULL                         head -> Local1 -> Local2 -> NULL
+ * tail -> NULL                         tail -------------^
+ *
+ * Inherited Content Only               Both Local and Inherited Content
+ * ==================================   ====================================
+ * head -> Parent1 -> Parent2 -> NULL   head -> L1 -> L2 -> P1 -> P2 -> NULL
+ * tail -> NULL                         tail ---------^
+ *
+ * This means that anyone wanting to traverse the whole list to USE it just
+ * needs to start at the head and use the "next" pointers until it goes
+ * NULL.  To add new local content, we insert the item after the tail item
+ * and update the tail (obviously, if "tail" was NULL, we insert it at the
+ * head).  To clear the local list, WE MUST NOT FREE THE INHERITED CONTENT
+ * because it is shared between the current list and our parent list(s).
+ * The easiest way to handle this is to simply truncate the list after the
+ * tail item and then free the local list from the head.  When inheriting
+ * the list for a new local dir, we just save off the exclude_list_struct
+ * values (so we can pop back to them) and set the tail to NULL.

+manpagesection(MERGING EXCLUDE FILES)
+
+You can merge whole files into an exclude file using a rule that starts
+with a ". " (a dot followed by a space) and has a filename in place of the
+pattern.  There are two types of merge rules, single-instance and
+per-directory:
+
+itemize(
+  it() If the filename has no slashes in it, it is a per-directory merge;
+  rsync scans every directory that it traverses for the named file, merging
+  its contents (when it exists) file at the start of this per-directory
+  sub-list (subdirectories inherit the contents of their parent directories
+  by default, and each subdirectory's rules have precedence over the parent
+  directory's rules).
+
+  it() If a filename has a slash in it, it is a single-instance merge; the
+  named file's contents will be merged into the current exclude file,
+  replacing the merge rule.  Thus, you should use the name ./foo instead of
+  foo if you don't want to scan for "foo" in all the subdirectories of the
+  current directory.
+)
+
+Note also that you can eliminate all the inherited rules for the current
+per-directory ruleset by putting the list-clearing token (!) in the file.
+This only clears the rules for the current per-directory sub-list (up
+through the ! token) and only for the current directory and its
+subdirectories.
+
+Here's an example exclude file (which you'd specify via the normal
+--exclude-from option):
+
+verb(
+    . /home/user/.global_excludes
+    - *.gz
+    . .excl
+    + *.[ch]
+    - *.o
+)
+
+This will merge the contents of the /home/user/.global_excludes file at the
+start of the list and also turns the ".excl" filename into a per-directory
+exclude file whose local contents will be merged into the list in place of
+the .excl line.
+
+Additionally, you can affect where the --cvs-exclude (-C) option's
+inclusion of a per-directory .cvsignore file gets placed into your rules by
+adding an explicit merge rule for ".cvsignore".  For instance, specifying
+this:
+
+verb(
+  rsync -avC --exclude='. .cvsignore' --exclude-from=foo a/ b
+)
+
+will merge all the per-directory .cvsignore rules at the start of your list
+rather than at the end.  This allows their dir-specific rules to supersede
+your rules instead of being subservient to them.  (The global rules taken
+from the $HOME/.cvsignore file and from $CVSIGNORE are not affected by
+this.)
+
+Note also that the parsing of any merge-file named ".cvsignore" is always
+done in a CVS-compatible manner (even if -C wasn't specified) -- i.e. the
+rules are always exclude rules (even when specified by an include option),
+they are split on whitespace, no special prefixes or list-clearing tokens
+are honored, and (for per-directory files) subdirectories don't inherit the
+parent directory's rules.
