2023-01-22kbuild: make W=1 warn files that are tracked but ignored by gitMasahiro Yamada1-0/+19
The top .gitignore comments about how to detect files breaking .gitignore rules, but people rarely care about it. Add a new W=1 warning to detect files that are tracked but ignored by git. If git is not installed or the source tree is not tracked by git at all, this script does not print anything. Running it on v6.2-rc1 detected the following: $ make W=1 misc-check Documentation/devicetree/bindings/.yamllint: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files drivers/clk/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files drivers/gpu/drm/tests/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files drivers/hid/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files fs/ext4/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files fs/fat/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files kernel/kcsan/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files lib/kunit/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files mm/kfence/.kunitconfig: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/arm64/tags/.gitignore: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/arm64/tags/Makefile: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/arm64/tags/run_tags_test.sh: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/arm64/tags/tags_test.c: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files These are ignored by the '.*' or 'tags' in the top .gitignore, but there is no rule to negate it. You might be tempted to do 'git add -f' but I want to have the real issue fixed (by fixing a .gitignore, or by renaming files, etc.).
