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 it with
``path:``. These path names must completely match starting at the
current repository root.
To use an extended glob, start a name with ``glob:``. Globs are rooted
at the current directory; a glob such as ``*.c`` will only match files
in the current directory ending with ``.c``.
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.
To read name patterns from a file, use ``listfile:`` or ``listfile0:``.
The latter expects null delimited patterns while the former expects line
feeds. Each string read from the file is itself treated as a file
pattern.
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 any subdirectory of the
current directory including itself.
foo/*.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo
foo/**.c any name ending in ".c" in any subdirectory of foo
including itself.
Regexp examples::
re:.*\.c$ any name ending in ".c", anywhere in the repository
File examples::
listfile:list.txt read list from list.txt with one file pattern per line
listfile0:list.txt read list from list.txt with null byte delimiters
