Subject: completion-ignored-extensions: match full file names
Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2011 19:54:49 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7E365780-0E85-4169-98B2-EB53D703A2BA@gmail.com> (raw)
After much searching, I finally figured out why completion did not work for in a specific, often-used case.
I gave several git repositories a ".git" ending in order to comply with the requirements of a program that comes with git (GitX). One repository in the same directory does not have the ".git" extension.
Completion always choose the one directory without the extension, because `completion-ignored-extensions' contains ".git/". So, matching ".git/" is a bit too general - I'd rather match something like "^\.git" in order to just exclude the internal ".git" directories. Is that possible, and if not, would be it easy to realize?
