No, the order of directives does not matter (unless you specify the same option/directive more than once. From the dirvish.conf manpage: "each option may be specified any number of times. Those options that expect lists will accumulate all of their arguments and for single value options each specification will override the ones before."). > Q #2: Ditto for the lines inside the expire-rule paragraph - does the > order matter? Yes, it does. From the dirvish.conf manpage section on expire rules: "The last rule that matches will apply so list order is significant. This allows rules to be set in client, vault and branch configuration files to override rules set in the master configuration file without having to use RESET." > Q #3: I can change settings like "+1 year" to "+3 years" to have it kept > for 3 years, right? I could not find any examples that showed multi-years > (except "never"). Yes, it seems the parser can handle plural years. The manpage says it uses Time::ParseDate to parse the relative times, and the documentation for that doesn't even mention singulars: http://search.cpan.org/~muir/Time-modules-2003.0211/lib/Time/ParseDate.pm -Andy _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
