-FILE NAME PATTERNS
-------------------
-
- Mercurial accepts several notations for identifying one or more
- files at a time.
-
- By default, Mercurial treats filenames as shell-style extended
- glob patterns.
-
- Alternate pattern notations must be specified explicitly.
-
- To use a plain path name without any pattern matching, start a
- name with "path:". These path names must match completely, from
- the root of the current repository.
-
- To use an extended glob, start a name with "glob:". Globs are
- rooted at the current directory; a glob such as "*.c" will match
- files ending in ".c" in the current directory only.
-
- The supported glob syntax extensions are "**" to match any string
- across path separators, and "{a,b}" to mean "a or b".
-
- To use a Perl/Python regular expression, start a name with "re:".
- Regexp pattern matching is anchored at the root of the repository.
-
- Plain examples:
-
- path:foo/bar a name bar in a directory named foo in the root of
- the repository
- path:path:name a file or directory named "path:name"
-
- Glob examples:
-
- glob:*.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory
- *.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory
- **.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory, or
- any subdirectory
- foo/*.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo
- foo/**.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo, or any
- subdirectory
-
- Regexp examples:
-
- re:.*\.c$ any name ending in ".c", anywhere in the repository
