Currently I wish to ignore two extensions *.raw and *.log BUT only if they are under a specific “root” folder.
Taking advantage of supposed .gitignore syntax support I wrote
LTSpice/**/*.raw
LTSpice/**/*.log
where ** should match ANY folder(s) (even no folder). However I’m seeing files being synced regardless.
Is the .gitignore syntax only partially supported? This git feature is ~10y old
Thanks in advance for any tips / help
Hi @aleperno! 
The rule seems to be correct. I just tried it on my end, in this case with PNG files and they are ignored upon entering this rule: Root Folder/**/*.png.
Can you please send the screenshots of where these .raw and .log files are in your folder hierarchy? You can email them to support@insynchq.com with the link to this post.
Sure here are the requested screenshots
Ingore Rules definitions:
Full path of the folder + creation of test file
The test file gets updated
@aleperno Can you try the following rule instead:
Analisis de Circuitos/LTSpice/**/.raw
Analisis de Circuitos/LTSpice/**/.log
Hi @mia, testing Analisis de Circuitos/LTSpice/**/*.raw did not work
However you gave me an idea and tested the path relative to my root folder
FACU (drive)/Analisis de Circuitos/LTSPice/**/*.raw does work
also tested
**/LTSPice/**/*.raw and also works.
Upon further reading of Git Ignore Pattern Documentation I found out if I defined a path (rather than a single directory), it is considered as relative to the ‘root’ folder.
Therefore, my mistake.
Thanks for the assistance!
Ah! Wonderful to know that you got this sorted out Thank you for the update, I appreciate it @aleperno.
