I have a website linked to Git repository at Bitbucket. This site is multi language but I need to upload to repository only spanish
and english
languages. The problem here is that same structure is present on several paths. See the example below (the same language structure is repeated on multiples paths):
system\
cms\
language\
arabic\
brazilian\
chinese_simplified\
chinese_traditional\
czech\
danish\

hebrew\
hungarian\
indonesian\
italian\
khmer\
lithuanian\

Is there any way, or regex if it's supported on .gitignore
to allow only spanish
and english
and ommit the rest of them?
Edit: toydarian solution
Following @toydarian suggestion I added this lines to .gitignore
file:
language/arabic/*
language/brazilian/*
language/chinese_simplified/*
language/chinese_traditional/*
language/czech/*
language/danish/*
language/dutch/*
language/finnish/*
language/french/*
language/german/*
language/greek/*
language/hebrew/*
language/hungarian/*
language/indonesian/*
language/italian/*
language/khmer/*
language/lithuanian/*
language/persian/*
language/polish/*
language/portuguese/*
language/russian/*
language/slovenian/*
language/swedish/*
language/thai/*
language/vietnamese/*
But as image shows, it's not working, any other advice or way?
You can use wildcards as you can use in the shell. look here
Regular expressions are not supported.
So the only thing is to add <language>/*
for every language, you want to exclude to your .gitignore
That will exclude every sub-directory of <language>
<language>
is a placeholder for a specific language like "german"
