gitignore any file called .KEYFILE anywhere under a directory foo, which itself is anywhere

Output

1
**/foo/**/.KEYFILE
This pattern will ignore: * `.KEYFILE` files directly within the `foo` directory. * `.KEYFILE` files in any subdirectory within `foo`, regardless of depth. * `.KEYFILE` files in any `foo` directory, regardless of where `foo` is located in your repository. The `**/` at the beginning handles this. For example, it would match all of these: * `/foo/.KEYFILE` * `/foo/bar/.KEYFILE` * `/some/other/path/foo/.KEYFILE` * `/some/other/path/foo/baz/qux/.KEYFILE` If you only want to ignore `.KEYFILE` directly under `foo` and not in its subdirectories, you would use: 
1
**/foo/.KEYFILE

Output

**/foo/**/.KEYFILE
This pattern will match: * `.KEYFILE` files: Specifically targets files named `.KEYFILE`. * Anywhere under `foo`: `**/foo/` means "any directory named `foo`, regardless of its depth in the repository". The `**` is a wildcard matching zero or more directories. * At any depth within `foo`: The second `**` ensures that `.KEYFILE` files are ignored within any subdirectory of `foo`, no matter how deeply nested. Example: If your repository structure looks like this: 
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
repo/
├── some_dir/
│   └── foo/
│       ├── bar/
│       │   └── .KEYFILE  (Ignored)
│       └── .KEYFILE      (Ignored)
└── another_dir/
    └── foo/
        └── .KEYFILE        (Ignored)
All three instances of `.KEYFILE` would be ignored. However, a file named `.KEYFILE` *outside* of a `foo` directory would *not* be ignored. For example: 
1
2
repo/
└── .KEYFILE  (NOT Ignored)

**/foo/**/.KEYFILE
This pattern will ignore: * Any file named `.KEYFILE` * Located within any directory named `foo` * Regardless of the depth of `foo` within the repository's directory structure. **Example:** This will match and ignore: * `/foo/.KEYFILE` * `/some/path/foo/.KEYFILE` * `/another/deeper/path/foo/some/subdirectory/.KEYFILE` It will *not* match: * `/foo.KEYFILE` (because `foo` is not a directory) * `/some/other/directory/.KEYFILE` (because it's not under a `foo` directory) * `/foo/KEYFILE` (because the filename is missing the leading dot) If you only want to ignore `.KEYFILE` files directly within `foo` directories and not in their subdirectories, use: 
1

**/foo/**/.KEYFILE
This pattern will match: * Any directory named `foo`, regardless of its depth in the repository. The `**/` matches zero or more directories. * Any directory within `foo`, again regardless of depth (`**/`). * A file named `.KEYFILE` within those directories. **Example:** This would ignore: * `/foo/.KEYFILE` * `/some/path/foo/.KEYFILE` * `/foo/bar/baz/.KEYFILE` * `/a/long/path/to/foo/another/long/path/.KEYFILE` It would *not* ignore: * `/foo/KEYFILE` (missing the leading dot) * `/some/other/dir/.KEYFILE` (not under `foo`) * `/foo/bar/.keyfile` (wrong capitalization) If you want to ignore files named `.KEYFILE` only directly within `foo` (and not in its subdirectories), use: 
1

Output

1
**/foo/**/.KEYFILE
This pattern will ignore any file named `.KEYFILE` within any directory named `foo`, regardless of its location in your repository. * `**`: Matches any number of subdirectories (including zero). * `/foo/`: Matches a directory named `foo`. * `**`: Matches any number of subdirectories within `foo`. * `/.KEYFILE`: Matches a file named `.KEYFILE`. Alternatively, if you only want to ignore `.KEYFILE` files directly within `foo` and not in its subdirectories, you can use: 
1
**/foo/.KEYFILE
And if your `foo` directory is always at the top level of your repository, you can simplify it further: 
1
foo/.KEYFILE
or 
1
foo/**/.KEYFILE
(If you also need to ignore KEYFILEs in subfolders of foo)
