Bug fixes:
- Issue #84: PathSpec.match_file() returns None since 0.12.0.
Major changes:
- Dropped support of EOL Python 3.7. See Pull #82.
API changes:
- Signature of protected method pathspec.pathspec.PathSpec._match_file() (with a leading underscore) has been changed from def _match_file(patterns: Iterable[Pattern], file: str) -> bool to def _match_file(patterns: Iterable[Tuple[int, Pattern]], file: str) -> Tuple[Optional[bool], Optional[int]].
New features:
- Added pathspec.pathspec.PathSpec.check_*() methods. These methods behave similarly to .match_*() but return additional information in the pathspec.util.CheckResult objects (e.g., CheckResult.index indicates the index of the last pattern that matched the file).
- Added pathspec.pattern.RegexPattern.pattern attribute which stores the original, uncompiled pattern.
Bug fixes:
Improvements:
- Mark Python 3.12 as supported. See Pull #82.
- Improve test debugging.
- Improve type hint on on_error parameter on pathspec.pathspec.PathSpec.match_tree_entries().
- Improve type hint on on_error parameter on pathspec.util.iter_tree_entries().
New features:
- Issue #80: match_files with negated path spec. pathspec.PathSpec.match_*() now have a negate parameter to make using .gitignore logic easier and more efficient.
Bug fixes:
- Pull #76: Add edge case: patterns that end with an escaped space
- Issue #77/Pull #78: Negate with caret symbol as with the exclamation mark.
Bug fixes:

Improvements:
- Pull #75: Fix partially unknown PathLike type.
- Convert os.PathLike to a string properly using os.fspath.
Major changes:
- Changed build backend to flit_core.buildapi from setuptools.build_meta. Building with setuptools through setup.py is still supported for distributions that need it. See Issue #72.
Improvements:
- Issue #72/Pull #73: Please consider switching the build-system to flit_core to ease setuptools bootstrap.
New features:
- Added utility function pathspec.util.append_dir_sep() to aid in distinguishing between directories and files on the file-system. See Issue #65.
Bug fixes:
- Issue #66/Pull #67: Package not marked as py.typed.
- Issue #68: Exports are considered private.
- Issue #70/Pull #71: 'Self' string literal type is Unknown in pyright.
Improvements:
- Issue #65: Checking directories via match_file() does not work on Path objects.
Bug fixes:
- Fix failing tests on Windows.
- Type hint on root parameter on pathspec.pathspec.PathSpec.match_tree_entries().
- Type hint on root parameter on pathspec.pathspec.PathSpec.match_tree_files().

- Type hint on root parameter on pathspec.util.iter_tree_files().
- Issue #64: IndexError with my .gitignore file when trying to build a Python package.
Improvements:
- Pull #58: CI: add GitHub Actions test workflow.
Bug fixes:
- Fix documentation on pathspec.pattern.RegexPattern.match_file().
- Pull #60: Remove redundant wheel dep from pyproject.toml.
- Issue #61: Dist failure for Fedora, CentOS, EPEL.
- Issue #62: Since version 0.10.0 pure wildcard does not work in some cases.
Improvements:
- Restore support for legacy installations using setup.py. See Issue #61.
Major changes:
- Dropped support of EOL Python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6. See Issue #47.
- The gitwildmatch pattern dir/* is now handled the same as dir/. This means dir/* will now match all descendants rather than only direct children. See Issue #19.
- Added pathspec.GitIgnoreSpec class (see new features).
- Changed build system to pyproject.toml and build backend to setuptools.build_meta which may have unforeseen consequences.
- Renamed GitHub project from python-path-specification to python-pathspec. See Issue #35.
API changes:
- Deprecated: pathspec.util.match_files() is an old function no longer used.
- Deprecated: pathspec.match_files() is an old function no longer used.
- Deprecated: pathspec.util.normalize_files() is no longer used.
- Deprecated: pathspec.util.iter_tree() is an alias for pathspec.util.iter_tree_files().
- Deprecated: pathspec.iter_tree() is an alias for pathspec.util.iter_tree_files().
- Deprecated: pathspec.pattern.Pattern.match() is no longer used. Use or implement pathspec.pattern.Pattern.match_file().
New features:
- Added class pathspec.gitignore.GitIgnoreSpec (with alias pathspec.GitIgnoreSpec) to implement gitignore behavior not possible with standard PathSpec class. The particular gitignore behavior implemented is prioritizing patterns matching the file directly over matching an ancestor directory.
Bug fixes:
- Issue #19: Files inside an ignored sub-directory are not matched.
- Issue #41: Incorrectly (?) matches files inside directories that do match.
- Pull #51: Refactor deprecated unittest aliases for Python 3.11 compatibility.

- Pull #56: pyproject.toml: include subpackages in setuptools config
- Issue #57: ! doesn't exclude files in directories if the pattern doesn't have a trailing slash.
