Can you provide an use-case / examples justifying this ?
we use it to add repos or options by installing files into /etc/pacman/conf.d/ with a name of testing.conf for a repo called testing for example and only add
Include = /etc/pacman/conf.d/*.conf
in /etc/pacman/pacman.conf.
Forgot to add that this way the pacman.conf is decoupled of the repositories and can be replaced on updates even if a user added another repo.
This was my main motivation in adding the support for globing here.
Ok thank you, this is exactly what I wanted to know, I think it should help for the discussion.
Thanks.
So it looks like globbing could be interesting, but user tilde expansion not so much.
I agree. Will look if it can be deactivated... Marc
