unison: Ignore some files using a pattern.
$ unison ${path-to-directory_1} ${path-to-directory_2} -ignore ${pattern}
try on your machine
This is a command used to synchronize the contents of two directories. Let's break it down:
unison
: This is the command to initiate the synchronization process using the Unison tool.${path-to-directory_1}
: Replace this with the actual path to the first directory you want to synchronize. It specifies the source directory for the synchronization.${path-to-directory_2}
: Replace this with the actual path to the second directory you want to synchronize. It specifies the destination directory for the synchronization.-ignore ${pattern}
: This flag tells Unison to ignore files that match the specified pattern during the synchronization process. Replace${pattern}
with a specific pattern or file name you want to ignore. For example, if you want to ignore all.txt
files, you would use-ignore "*.txt"
.
Overall, this command synchronizes the contents of path-to-directory_1
with path-to-directory_2
using the Unison tool, while ignoring files that match the specified pattern.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
