Summary: rsync doesn't obey .cvsignore (exclamation) ! semantics
Product: rsync
Version: 2.6.3
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
In a .cvsignore file, an excalmation point (!) on a line by itself is used to
clear the exclusion list, including builtins. rsync has done this in the
past, but changed at some point ... I didn't trace the CVS logs for the change.
In excludes.c, ! is getting flagged off with the other meta-characters when in
this case, allowing it would follow the (useful) CVS semantics.
