I noticed that much of the code I wrote for this project really belonged at
the side of the gitignore library (finding and managing all the separate
gitignore files). This was mainly because of the delicate handling needed to
ensure that the rules are checked in the correct order.
I also ran into a whole bunch of problems regarding to doing all of this in
Windows also.
So I created a `GitIgnoreFileSet` which is really container for `all the
.gitignore files in your project`.
You can create one either like this:
GitIgnoreFileSet gitIgnoreFileSet = new GitIgnoreFileSet(projectBaseDir);
or
GitIgnoreFileSet gitIgnoreFileSet = new GitIgnoreFileSet(projectBaseDir,
false);
gitIgnoreFileSet.addGitIgnoreFile(new File("somedir/.gitignore"));
and then can use it like this:
if(gitIgnoreFileSet.ignoreFile(filename)) {
or use it as a FileFilter (you guys indicated this to be desirable)
File[] normalFiles = directory.listFiles(gitIgnoreFileSet);
This all means the operational code for this in this project was reduced.
I have released this new version to maven central, seems I was a bit too
fast with pushing my code here.
