TortoiseHG is ignoring folder

Question

I added CKEditor to my project. After final configuration, I am not able to commit folder dialog in folder ckeditor/plugins. When I open TortoiseHG Workbench, there is no dialog folder to commit. Other users after update didn't get that folder, so editor not work for others.

I am not ignoring that folder. Here is my .hgignore file: syntax=regex ^\. ^target/ ^jsTestDriver\.conf$ ^node_modules/ ^run-ft\.bat$ ^run-ut\.bat$ log$ versionsBackup$ main\.css$ \.idea$ \.iml$

When I rename folder dialog to something else (for example dialog2), it automatically appears and I can commit, but dialog2 is useless for me. Please, any ideas?

Answer 1

Yes, it is normal, you have

log$

Which excludes the string if it ends with log, as in dialog...

If you need to exclude .log file, use

\.log$

Answer 2

Use hg add in console and add directory by hand (or move .hgignore temporary out of repository and add in GUI)

Try something like hg add -I ckeditor/plugins/dialog/* -n (and fix probably bad pattern for good result)
