But libstdc++/doc/html is the entry in the wildcard_prefixes list. What I mean is using a sub-directory in the changelog: * doc/html/manual/*: Love is all you need. The use case is for subsets of the testsuite. I've added libstdc++-v3/testsuite to the wildcard_prefixes, which means I can now do this: * testsuite/*: Update all 28_regex tests. But I would like to do this: * testsuite/28_regex/*: Update all tests. The concrete use case is: * testsuite/20_util/specialized_algorithms/pstl/*: Add dg-timeout-factor. * testsuite/25_algorithms/pstl/*: Likewise. * testsuite/26_numerics/pstl/*: Likewise. * testsuite/28_regex/*: Likewise. I'm modifying four specific sub-directories, so I'd like to say that in the changelog. Currently to allow that I'd have to add every directory under libstdc++-v3/testsuite to the wildcard_prefixes (which doesn't scale) or just be vague instead of saying which sub-directories are affected: * testsuite/*: Add dg-timeout-factor to most pstl and regex tests.
