[bug] Directory ignore pattern not working in cmpignore

[ckudera]

Dotdrop version (and git commit if run from source): de05935ef1efa1bde32dbcbc80a46487dd825a8c (Sun Dec 31 14:14:00 2023 +0100) Using dotdrop: as a submodule

Describe the bug

Similar to #418, directories are not ignored.

Steps to Reproduce

~/.config/obsidian directory structure:

I tried different configurations (the first one as documented in the documentation):

  d_obsidian:
    src: config/obsidian
    dst: ~/.config/obsidian
    chmod: '700'
    cmpignore:
    - '!Custom Dictionary.txt'
    - '[a-zA-Z0-9]*'

  d_obsidian:
    src: config/obsidian
    dst: ~/.config/obsidian
    chmod: '700'
    cmpignore:
    - '!Custom Dictionary.txt'
    - '[a-zA-Z0-9\ ]*'

  d_obsidian:
    src: config/obsidian
    dst: ~/.config/obsidian
    chmod: '700'
    cmpignore:
    - "*"
    - '!Custom Dictionary.txt'

But the output of dotdrop compare is always:

=> compare d_obsidian: diffing with "/home/fedora/.config/obsidian"
=> "Cache" does not exist in dotdrop
=> "Code Cache" does not exist in dotdrop
=> "Crashpad" does not exist in dotdrop

\ No newline at end of file
+checksum_v1 = f470ae77284243a7408904721d472d18
\ No newline at end of file

Therefore, files are ignored, but directories are not.

Expected behavior

Every file and directory except Custom Dictionary.txt should be ignored.

Additional information

I know, I could simply backup only the Custom Dictionary.txt file, but I might want to add files from the /home/fedora/.config/obsidian/ directory in the future.

Thanks for reporting this and sorry for the late reply. I will look at that ASAP and will get back to you.

@deadc0de6 Thank you for the fast fix and your amazing work on dotdrop :)

[deadc0de6]

@ckudera I have completely refactored the way the ignore pattern (and negative ignore pattern) are handled in dotdrop. That should fix your issue above. Could you give it a try in the branch fix-431? Here's the doc on how to use the branch with dotdrop. Thanks!

[ckudera]

@deadc0de6 Yes, it works :) Thank you!

[deadc0de6]

@ckudera the new feature is available in the master branch. Thanks for your help on this :+1:
