To say that last question another way:
How do I confine the effect of ex_list() to the folder where I want to make the
exception?
That is what if I have...
blah/sub1/file.txt
blah/sub2/file.txt
...and I want
1) the copy under sub2 to be allowed to change
2) the copy under sub1 is controlled.
3) sub1 and sub2 are purged of anyfile not in their masters
Looks like I can do this:
vars:
"masters" string => "blah";
"sub1_excludes" slist => { ".*\.pv", ".*\.pt", ".*\.eq",
".*PRES.cf"};
files:
"blah/sub1"
...
file_select => ex_list("@(sub1_excludes)"),
...
"blahsub2"
# no ex_list
Is that the way a fluent speaker would do it?
Is there a better way?
Thanks,
Ron
