is there any way how to tell git to ignore certain lines of a file?
I'm trying to put my .bashrc .gitconfig and other useful configs on to github (because there are some valuable pieces of code I want to share ) but the thing is I don't want to share certain "valuable informations about me",
so is there any way around to tell git to ignore certain patern or line of a file (for instance in .gitignore? )
note: I figure how to do my bashrc sharing ( I will keep in bashrc p开发者_开发问答ublic things and move private to bashprofile that I wont share) but I'm kinda wondering how to share my gitconfig (there are some pretty good aliases)
thx
I think it is conceivable to do something of the sort with gitattributes
and the smudge
and clean
filters but it would be messy and probably rather fragile. My method is simply to put things I don't want public in a non-shared ~/.bashrc.local
file and source that file inside from the shared .bashrc
, e.g.
if [ -r ~/.bashrc.local ]; then
. ~/.bashrc.local
fi
This also allows me to maintain system/machine-specific configs without screwing up my global .bashrc
.
so just for correct closing of this question:
the solutions answered here and in comments worked for my problem (split .bashrc) but for the original question :
is there any way how to tell git to ignore certain lines of a file?
there is no easy way
To answer your question specifically, (which is different from the particular problem you wanted to solve), check out:
How to tell git to ignore individual lines, i.e. gitignore for specific lines of code.
