ignores in config not work

[ozee31]

I want to ignore some directories once the rsync is launched to the remote but it doesn't work. My "doc" directory is still present

module.exports = shipit => {
  require("shipit-deploy")(shipit);

  const cakeShared = require("./shared/cake");

  shipit.initConfig({
    default: {
      servers: "...",
      repositoryUrl: "git@github.com:.../...",
      shallowClone: false,
      keepReleases: 3,
      deleteOnRollback: false,
      ignores: [
        "doc"
      ],
    },
    preprod: {
      deployTo: "/.../preprod",
      branch: "develop",
      workspace: "/tmp/app-develop"
    },
    production: {
      deployTo: "/.../production",
      branch: "master",
      workspace: "/tmp/app-master"
    }
  });
};

@ozee31 Is the "doc" folder inside the root project directory?

[ozee31]

@utkarsh-dixit yes workspace path is /tmp/app-develop/doc

I am having the same issue. Did you find a solution for this?

Actually, the "issue" arose because shipit copies the folder on the server and only changes files that are changed (I guess?). However ignored files are not deleted. Once I deleted the files on the server from the current folder, the next update would not have the ignored files anymore.

This solved it for me. 😄
