From: "Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@crashcourse.ca> To: Git Mailing list <git@vger.kernel.org> Subject: "git rm" seems to do recursive removal even without "-r" Date: Sat, 7 Oct 2017 14:39:50 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.21.1710071436140.14843@localhost.localdomain> (raw) was just testing variations of "git rm", and man page claims: -r Allow recursive removal when a leading directory name is given. i tested this on the "pro git" book repo, which contains a top-level "book/" directory, and quite a number of "*.asc" files in various subdirectories one or more levels down. i ran: $ git rm book/\*.asc and it certainly seemed to delete *all* "*.asc" files no matter where they were under book/, even without the "-r" option. am i misunderstanding something? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
