@node Motivation For Ignore Lists, Types And Syntax Of Ignore Lists, Ignore Lists, Ignore Lists
@section Motivation For Ignore Lists
In many situations, there will exist files under the package
directories which it would be undesirable to stow into the target
directory. For example, files related version control such as
@file{.gitignore}, @file{CVS}, @file{*,v} (RCS files) should typically
not have symlinks from the target tree pointing to them. Also there
may be files or directories relating to the build of the package which
are not needed at run-time.
In these cases, it can be rather cumbersome to specify a
@samp{--ignore} parameter for each file or directory to be ignored.
This could be worked around by ensuring the existence of
@file{~/.stowrc} containing multiple @samp{--ignore} lines, or if a
different set of files/directories should be ignored depending on
which stow package is involved, a @file{.stowrc} file for each stow
package, but this would require the user to ensure that they were in
the correct directory before invoking stow, which would be tedious and
error-prone. Furthermore, since Stow shifts parameters from
@file{.stowrc} onto ARGV at run-time, it could clutter up the process
table with excessively long parameter lists, or even worse, exceed the
operating system's limit for process arguments.
@cindex ignore lists
Therefore in addition to @samp{--ignore} parameters, Stow provides a
way to specify lists of files and directories to ignore.
@c ===========================================================================
@node Types And Syntax Of Ignore Lists, Justification For Yet Another Set Of Ignore Files, Motivation For Ignore Lists, Ignore Lists
@section Types And Syntax Of Ignore Lists
If you put Perl regular expressions, one per line, in a
@file{.stow-local-ignore} file within any top level package directory,
in which case any file or directory within that package matching any
of these regular expressions will be ignored. In the absence of this
package-specific ignore list, Stow will instead use the contents of
@file{~/.stow-global-ignore}, if it exists. If neither the
package-local or global ignore list exist, Stow will use its own
built-in default ignore list, which serves as a useful example of the
format of these ignore list files:
@example
@verbatiminclude default-ignore-list
@end example
Stow first iterates through the chosen ignore list (built-in, global,
or package-local) as per above, stripping out comments (if you want to
include the @samp{#} symbol in a regular expression, escape it with a
blackslash) and blank lines, placing each regular expressions into one
of two sets depending on whether it contains the @samp{/} forward
slash symbol.
Then in order to determine whether a file or directory should be
ignored:
@enumerate
@item
Stow calculates its path relative to the top-level package directory,
prefixing that with @samp{/}. If any of the regular expressions
containing a @samp{/} @emph{exactly}@footnote{Exact matching means the
regular expression is anchored at the beginning and end, in contrast
to unanchored regular expressions which will match a substring.} match
a subpath@footnote{In this context, ``subpath'' means a contiguous
subset of path segments; e.g for the relative path
@file{one/two/three/four}, the following are examples of valid
subpaths: @file{one}, @file{two}, @file{two/three},
@file{two/three/four}.} of this relative path, then the file or
directory will be ignored.
@item
If none of the regular expressions containing a @samp{/} match in the
manner described above, Stow checks whether the
@emph{basename}@footnote{The ``basename'' is the name of the file or
directory itself, excluding any directory path prefix - as returned by
the @command{basename} command.} of the file or directory matches
@emph{exactly} against the remaining regular expressions which do not
contain a @samp{/}, and if so, ignores the file or directory.
@item
Otherwise, the file or directory is not ignored.
@end enumerate
For example, if a file @file{bazqux} is in the @file{foo/bar}
subdirectory of the package directory, Stow would use
@code{/foo/bar/bazqux} as the text for matching against regular
expressions which contain @samp{/}, and @code{bazqux} as the text for
matching against regular expressions which don't contain @samp{/}.
Then regular expressions @code{bazqux}, @code{baz.*}, @code{.*qux},
@code{bar/.*x}, and @code{^/foo/.*qux} would all match (causing the
file to be ignored), whereas @code{bar}, @code{baz}, and @code{qux}
would not (although @code{bar} would cause its parent directory to be
ignored and prevent Stow from recursing into that anyway, in which
case the file @file{bazqux} would not even be considered for
stowing).
As a special exception to the above algorithm, any
@file{.stow-local-ignore} present in the top-level package directory
is @emph{always} ignored, regardless of the contents of any ignore
list, because this file serves no purpose outside the stow directory.
@c ===========================================================================
@node Justification For Yet Another Set Of Ignore Files, , Types And Syntax Of Ignore Lists, Ignore Lists
@section Justification For Yet Another Set Of Ignore Files
The reader may note that this format is very similar to existing
ignore list file formats, such as those for @code{CVS}, @code{git},
@code{rsync} etc., and wonder if another set of ignore lists is
justified. However there are good reasons why Stow does not simply
check for the presence of say, @code{.cvsignore}, and use that if it
exists. Firstly, there is no guarantee that a stow package would
contain any version control meta-data, or permit introducing this if
it didn't already exist.
Secondly even if it did, version control system ignore lists generally
reflect @emph{build-time} ignores rather than @emph{install-time}, and
there may be some intermediate or temporary files on those ignore
lists generated during development or at build-time which it would be
inappropriate to stow, even though many files generated at build-time
(binaries, libraries, documentation etc.) certainly do need to be
stowed. Similarly, if a file is @emph{not} in the version control
system's ignore list, there is no way of knowing whether the file is
intended for end use, let alone whether the version control system is
tracking it or not.
Therefore it seems clear that ignore lists provided by version control
systems do not provide sufficient information for Stow to determine
which files and directories to stow, and so it makes sense for Stow to
support independent ignore lists.
