Exclude repos for GitHub service does not seem to work

[kostajh]

In my .bugwarriorc I have:

github.exclude_repos = subDrush,LibTask,task-git,sublime-taskwarrior

But issues for these repos are added when I run bugwarrior-pull.

Is anyone using the exclude_repos option successfully?

Yeah, I am. I wonder what's going on. Are you running bugwarrior from git, or from pypi?

[kostajh]

From pypi, I just reinstalled to be sure.

OK, something might be broken there in the last release. We were waiting on taskwarrior itself to put out 2.3.1 release with a bugfix (file-locking on the task data directory), but it looks like they're forging ahead for the 2.4.0 release instead.

@kostajh do you still get the problem is you try running bugwarrior from git?

[kostajh]

@ralphbean I'm on tw-2.4.0 now so I'm hesitant to run :-) Do you know if the latest taskw/bugwarrior will work ok with tw-2.4?

Only kinda sorta. Hold off for now (or backup your .task/ directory, try it, and post the output).

Here's the work in taskw to make it work. It's almost done except for some stuff that needs fixed in taskwarrior itself -> ralphbean/taskw#68

[kostajh]

Hi @ralphbean I reinstalled taskw using feature/2.4 and reinstalled bugwarrior from the latest HEAD. Still getting tasks from excluded repos. I'm on TW 2.4

I did some experimentation and found that if I included github.{in,ex}clude_repos that these options worked as advertised, but when not including the 'github.' they did not.

Thanks @harleypig!
