How to avoid tracking generated module files?

[campadrenalin]

Admittedly, this isn't really a bug, it's a question. But I'll take a contact medium where I can find one.

I'm working on a project where there are multiple generated .pm files, which are produced by src/Makefile. I deliberately do not want to track these files in git, because the build process is non-deterministic (thanks, YAPP) and it builds a bit different every time, leading to massive amounts of diff churn.

My ideal is that releases can contain the baked files, so everyone doesn't need to install YAPP and such, but that developers are required to install those things, and they will not be tracked by git. Is this possible to accomplish in Minilla?

Hmm. These type repo is not supported for now.

I see. Is there any openness toward supporting it in the future? I'd love to help with that, since "don't track generated files" is such a common policy.

I'm here with the same issue. I autogenerate .pm files and .t files from source files. I can exclude the source files using the exclude_match option in minil.toml. Would like to have an analogous include_match option to specify where .pm files can be found. I looked at FileGatherer.pm, and seems possible. Would you be open to supporting this or receiving a patch?
