# Git::Raw::PathSpec(3pm)

Git pathspec class

## NAME

Git::Raw::PathSpec - Git pathspec class

## VERSION

version 0.90

## DESCRIPTION

A Git::Raw::PathSpec represents a Git pathspec.

**WARNING**: The API of this module is unstable and may change without warning (any change will be appropriately documented in the changelog).

## METHODS

### new( @paths )

Compile a new pathspec. `@match` is the list of paths to match.

### match( $object \[, \\%options\] )

Math the pathspec against `$object`. `$object` could be a Git::Raw::Repository (matches against the working directory), Git::Raw::Index (matches against the index), Git::Raw::Tree (matches against the tree) or a Git::Raw::Diff (matches against the diff). Returns a Git::Raw::PathSpec::MatchList object. Valid fields for `%options` are:

- •

  "flags"

  Flags for the matches. Valid values include:

  - •

    "ignore\_case"

    Forces match to ignore case, otherwise the match will use native case sensitivity of the platform's filesystem.

  - •

    "use\_case"

    Forces case sensitive match, otherwise the match will use native case sensitivity of the platform's filesystem.

  - •

    "no\_glob"

    Disables glob patterns and just uses simple string comparison for matching.

  - •

    "no\_match\_error"

    `"math"` should return an error code if no matches were found.

  - •

    "find\_failures"

    Record patterns that did not match.

  - •

    "failures\_only"

    Only determine if there were patterns that did not match.
