7.7.3 The Entry in sheets.map

The last touch is to include the pattern rules about ChangeLog files (which could appear as ChangeLog.old etc.) in sheets.map:

# ChangeLog files
chlog:  /ChangeLog*/

This won’t work... Well, not always. Not for instance if you print misc/ChangeLog. This is not a bug, but truly a feature, since sometimes one gets more information about the type of a file from its path, than from the file name.

Here, to match the preceding path that may appear, just use ‘*’:

# ChangeLog files
chlog:  /*ChangeLog*/

If you want to be more specific (FooChangeLog should not match), use:

# ChangeLog files
chlog:  /ChangeLog*/ /*\/ChangeLog*/
