type Matcher ¶

type Matcher struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Matcher evaluates paths against a stack of .gitignore files discovered during a top-down filesystem walk. It implements the subset of gitignore(5) semantics that matters for scan pruning: comments, negation (`!`), anchored patterns (leading or embedded `/`), directory-only patterns (trailing `/`), and `*` / `?` / `**` / `[...]` globs.

Rules are accumulated per directory: call LoadDir on each directory as the walk enters it (parents before children, which filepath.WalkDir guarantees), then Ignored to test each entry. Because ignored directories are pruned with SkipDir, a negation cannot re-include a file whose parent directory is ignored — this matches git's own behaviour.
