vignore
Never been so easy to visualize ignore rules
It has been a while since I've found writing ignore files, like .gitignore, .dockerignore, or .fdignore, being a hassle.
I've struggled with including the correct files and excluding unwanted ones.
But now, there's no need to guess blindly! Experience the power of visualizing ignored (selected) files and receive instant feedback through intuitive representations.
Highlights
- Asynchronous output, so you can scroll smoothly while processing
- Extremely fast for large repositories
- Human friendly number representations
- Supports
gitandfdignore files - Supports custom ignore files and custom
fdarguments (coming soon)
Install
pip3 install vignore
Usage
The diffpath shall be absolute.
vignore [-h] -d DIFFPATH
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d DIFFPATH, --diffpath DIFFPATH
Path to visualize ignored files
Requirements
You need to install fd, a fast find alternative.
You need to run this under a Unix-like OS.
