Re: Do a grep -r without match .svn directory ?

[Bob Davis]

I tested it with '*svn*' and on cygwin grep which is:

grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1

and it worked.

Strangely enough if I put '*.svn*' it didn't work.

Hi Bob,

That doesn't seem to work either.  I executed the following:

    cd ~/.vim
    grep -Rli --exclude=\*syntax\* maintainer .

and the results included files such as

    ./syntax/Decho.vim

I also tried variations including

    --exclude=syntax
    --exclude=*syntax*
    --exclude='*syntax*'
    '--exclude=*syntax*'

all with the same results.

Regards,
Gary
