[PATCH 31/35] pathspec: allow querying for attributes

From
Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>
Date
Nov 10, 2016, 20:34 UTC
Message-ID
<20161110203428.30512-32-sbeller@google.com>
In-Reply-To
<20161110203428.30512-1-sbeller@google.com>

The pathspec mechanism is extended via the new ":(attr:eol=input)pattern/to/match" syntax to filter paths so that it requires paths to not just match the given pattern but also have the specified attrs attached for them to be chosen.
