Simian excludes option

I am having some issues configuring the options for Simian Similarity Analyzer

Currently I have <buildArgs>-includes=**/*.cs -formatter=xml:build\log\simian.xml -failOnDuplication</buildArgs>

I would like to add an -excludes option to exclude all files in a subfolder of the current directory, called branches.

I have tried several permutations, but keep getting 'Missing filespec'. I don't really understand the semantics of the pattern, and cant find any examples

TIA

UPDATE

I have tried these options

-excludes **/branches/*.cs (missing filespec)

-excludes /branches/**/*.cs (missing filespec)

I am interpreting ** to mean any folder recursively under the current base directory, or the path passed in, but the pattern seems to work differently

Solution

  • This works for me: 

    simian-2.3.33.exe -includes=**\*.cs -excludes=branches\**\*.cs
