fix(web): match .gitattributes patterns in subdirectories - #1692
brendan-kellam merged 6 commits into
Conversation
resolveLanguageFromGitAttributes passed each .gitattributes pattern straight to micromatch against the full repo path. A pattern with no slash, such as `*.h linguist-language=C`, only matched files at the repo root, so the override never applied to `src/foo.h`. Root-anchored patterns like `/config.in` never matched at all. Follow the gitattributes rules: a pattern with no slash matches the file name at any depth; any other pattern is matched from the repository root with a leading slash removed.

Fixes #1691
resolveLanguageFromGitAttributesmatched every pattern against the full repo-relative path withmicromatch.isMatch. So*.h linguist-language=Conly applied to headers at the repo root, and an anchored pattern like/config.innever matched. The file viewer and file-source API ignored the override for nearly every file.It now follows git's rule: a pattern with no slash is matched against the file name (any directory); any other pattern is matched from the repo root, with a leading
/stripped.dot: trueis set so dotfiles match too. The last matching rule still wins.How I verified it
New
packages/web/src/lib/gitattributes.test.ts(4 tests):main(b493151), 3 fail. For examplesrc/include/foo.hwith*.h linguist-language=Cresolves toundefinedinstead ofC.A reviewer can confirm it by adding
*.h linguist-language=Cto a repo's.gitattributesand opening a header in a subdirectory.AI disclosure: an AI coding agent working for the

Note
Low Risk
Localized change to file-viewer language resolution with new unit tests; behavior aligns with gitattributes semantics and mainly fixes incorrect highlighting for nested paths.
Overview
Fixes
.gitattributeslinguist-languageoverrides so they apply to files in subdirectories (and match git’s pattern rules), not only at the repo root.resolveLanguageFromGitAttributesno longer matches every pattern against the full path with micromatch alone. It uses a newmatchesGitAttributesPattern: slashless patterns (e.g.*.h) match the basename at any depth; patterns with/match the normalized repo-relative path (leading/stripped,.segments collapsed). Matching usesdot: truefor dotfiles, andfalse/unspecifiedlinguist-language values clear a prior override while last matching rule still wins.Adds
gitattributes.test.tsfor depth, root anchoring, path rules, dotfiles, and reset behavior, plus a changelog entry.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 85f13ee. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.

Summary by CodeRabbit
.gitattributeslanguage overrides now apply correctly to files in subdirectories and dotfiles. Patterns without slashes match filenames at any directory depth, while patterns with slashes match repository-relative paths; leading-slash patterns apply only at the repository root. Paths prefixed with./are handled correctly. The last matching rule determines the language, and a rule can clear or replace an earlier override.
