libgit2
Please add flags argument to `Index.add_all` function.
Hello,
Sometimes I have to add directories matched with .gitignore to repository. libgit2 function git_index_add_all have force flag for this. But pygit2 does not have argument for flags. Is it possible to add such argument in future releases?
Seconding this, as the design decision to exclude flags feels like it must have been intentional, and I'd love to understand the rationale at the very least.
@sergey-komissarov as a workaround, it appears that index.add(explicit_file_path) ignores .gitignore-matches, so you can always manually iterate through all the files in those directories.
That would work for me as well except I potentially want to force-add patterns, and I'm still suffering from the trauma of figuring out the OS-specific nuances of fnmatch to want to reverse-engineer a glob-based solution of my own.
