Trouble ignoring certain files

lilHermit commented 5 months ago

What exactly are you trying to do?

I have the following layout for my tmux config

❯ ll ~/.config/tmux/ 
drwxrwxr-x     - : 2024-05-24 21:33 plugins
.rw-rw-r-- 2.6Ki : 2024-05-24 21:45 tmux.conf
.rw-rw-r-- 1.1Ki : 2024-05-24 21:33 tmux.reset.conf

and plugins contains

❯ ll ~/.config/tmux/plugins
drwxrwxr-x - : 2024-05-24 21:31 tmux
drwxrwxr-x - : 2024-05-24 21:33 tmux-continuum
.... (trimmed for brevity)
drwxrwxr-x - : 2024-05-24 21:33 tmux-yank
drwxrwxr-x - : 2024-05-24 21:31 tpm

I want add the whole tmux directory and the tpm plugin but ignore any future plugins as they will be installed by tpm. That was it makes it more manageable.

What have you tried so far?

I've added the following ~/.local/share/chezmoi/.chezmoiignore

.config/tmux/plugins/*

!.config/tmux/plugins/tpm/
!.config/tmux/plugins/tpm/**

Describe what you have tried so far.

Where else have you checked for solutions?

Output of any commands you've tried with `--verbose` flag

The output of the add looks ok to me all plugins except tpm ignored however the managed command shows no files

❯ chezmoi --verbose add -r ~/.config/tmux
chezmoi: warning: ignoring .config/tmux/plugins/tmux
chezmoi: warning: ignoring .config/tmux/plugins/tmux-continuum
chezmoi: warning: ignoring .config/tmux/plugins/tmux-floax

chezmoi: warning: ignoring .config/tmux/plugins/tmux-yank
chezmoi: /home/scott/.config/tmux/plugins/tmux-continuum/.git: parent directory not in source state

❯ chezmoi --verbose managed | grep tmux

Adding files separately works

❯ chezmoi --verbose add -r ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf ~/.config/tmux/tmux.reset.conf
-- Removed file contents display --
❯ chezmoi --verbose managed | grep tmux
.config/tmux
.config/tmux/tmux.conf
.config/tmux/tmux.reset.conf

However I can't then add plugins (which I would expect to add the tpm folder) unless mt assumption is incorrect

❯ chezmoi --verbose add -r ~/.config/tmux/plugins
chezmoi: warning: ignoring .config/tmux/plugins/tmux
chezmoi: warning: ignoring .config/tmux/plugins/tmux-continuum

❯ chezmoi --verbose managed | grep tmux
.config/tmux
.config/tmux/tmux.conf
.config/tmux/tmux.reset.conf

Additional context

BTW I love the project and it's been amazing to sync my systems and help would be appreciated.

What I was looking for was a way to re-add in future without having to manually choose what to add. For example

chezmoi re-add -r ~/.config/tmux

I want to do the same. Did you find a solution to this?

Running chezmoi ignored will list all the files that chezmoi ignores, which may help you debug your .chezmoiignore file.

Was struggling with a similar issue. Essentially, the following does not work:

*
!a/b/**

You need

*
!a/
!a/b/**
