"tmp_versions" vs ".tmp_versions" (.hgignore)

[iler.ml]

[v 0.9.4 ]
The add/commit ignored file ".tmp_versions" in add/commi.
The strange part is that my .hgignore [1] does not have ".tmp_versions".
But has "tmp_versions". Why the ".tmp_versions" was ignored ?

Thanks
Yakov

Because neither glob nor regexp expression matches are "rooted"; in
other words "a" in glob syntax will match files "a", "ba", even "c/a",
but not "ad". The man page mentions this if you read carefully, but
it's easy to miss. Right now you have to use a rooted regexp to avoid
that behavior, in your case:

syntax: regexp
^tmp_versions

Maybe it's a Windows related problem, as I can easily reproduce with
0.9.4 on windows. I thought it was normal behavior on all platforms
though (matches aren't rooted). Am I mistaken? Yakov, did I
misunderstand your problem?

$ hg init
$ touch .tmp_versions
$ touch tmp_versions
$ hg status -A
? .tmp_versions
? tmp_versions
$ echo tmp_versions >.hgignore
$ hg status -A
? .hgignore
I .tmp_versions
I tmp_versions

I don't believe that Evan has shown the same behavior.  Evan, you
redirect output to your .hgignore, so the only content of that file is
"tmp_versions".  Alexis' example shows "syntax: glob" at the top of
the file.  Since the default is regexp syntax, you are comparing two
different things.

You're right. And, indeed, globs won't behave like my example.

Yakov, maybe .tmp_versions is a directory that is empty or contains
only ignored files, as in your other thread?

Just curious, do you see ".tmp_versions" with hg status --ignored?
