History

#1 Updated by Greg Shah about 3 years ago

Any text following a # character in the include (-f option for ConversionDriver) or exclude file list (-x option for ConversionDriver) is ignored. This is a problem because it is perfectly valid to have a # inside a filename.

The best solution is probably to honor this only if the # is the first character on the line. In #5135, this might even be expanded to be a "directive".

Fixed in 3821c revision 12645. We now only honor a # character as a comment if it is the first character on the line. All other cases are allowed as part of a filename.
