Exclude Changes From Outside Java Pattern

Changes can be filtered to not trigger a build if none of the files within a change match the Java patterns (regular expression) listed.

For example, with the following regular expressions:
//depot/main/tests.*
//depot/main/src/.*\.cpp
//depot/main/build/.*(?:\.rb|\.py|\.bat|Jenkinsfile)
//depot/main/lib/(?!Lib1|Lib2).*

• The change below is not filtered because these files match the pattern on tests.*: //depot/main/tests/CONTRIUBTING.md
//depot/main/tests/001/index.xml
• This change below is not filtered because the file matches the pattern on tests.* which was probably intended to describe the tests/ directory. This is an example as to why you should be careful when using incomplete file paths. //depot/main/tests.doc
  • The change below is not filtered because all of the files match the pattern looking for script files in build/: //depot/main/build/rbs/deploy_server.rb
//depot/main/build/deploy/deploy.bat
//depot/main/build/Jenkinsfile
  • The change below is filtered because none of the files match the pattern looking for .cpp files under main/src: //depot/main/src/howto.doc
//depot/main/src/oldmain.c
//depot/main/src/art/splash.bmp
//depot/main/src/bt/funnelcake.php
  • The change below is filtered because Lib1 is included in a negative lookahead, and is excluded: //depot/main/lib/Lib1/build.xml
