Mercurial .hgignore: Some questions on how to ignore a single file

Question

There's a particular file in my repository, libraries/database.php, that I need ignored. However, I can't get the syntax to recognize the file - I've tried **/libraries/**/database.php and libraries/database.php in glob, and ^.libraries/database.php in regex, but neither of them work. What should I do?

Answer 1

经过几个小时的跟踪,在网上找到了所有的建议,我发现我总是在.hgignore中正确地做,但.hgignore不会忽略目前被mercurial跟踪的文件.

你必须这样做

hg forget mydir/myfile.ext

或者将文件添加到.hgignore不会生效.

syntax: glob
mydir/myfile.ext

那以上就行了.
