Subject: bug#27456: 25.2; Not possible to use -prune with find-dired
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2017 23:00:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k243qm3z.fsf@felesatra.moe> (raw)
It is not possible to effectively use the -prune action with find-dired.
With plain find, -prune would be used like:
find . -name "foo*" -prune -o -name "*.el" -ls
However, find-dired wraps everything:
(find-dired "." "-name \\"foo*\\" -prune -o -name \\"*.el\\" -ls")
results in the equivalent call:
find . \( -name "foo*" -prune -o -name "*.el" -ls \) -ls
Notably, this will list files matching foo*
Unfortunately, I'm not sure if there are any easy remedies. Perhaps
find-dired should refrain from appending -ls if ARGS already contains
-ls.
