problem with filemask

Hi

I'm trying to use command line winscp to copy a folder to a server, excluding svn files.
@echo off
set winscp="c:\Program Files (x86)\winscp\winscp.exe" 

...

%winscp% mysite /console /command "option confirm off" "put -filemask=.svn %localfolder% %remotefolder% " "exit"
No matter what I set the filemask to, no files get uploaded (things work fine without the filemask, so never mind the tokens).

Ideally, I would like to exclude everything beginning with "." - I tried .* as filemask, is that right?


I also tried
%winscp% mysite  /console /command "option confirm off" "option exclude .svn" "put %localfolder% %remotefolder% " "exit"
it seems to recognize the option - console prints "confirm off, include |.svn"
So exclude turns to include and again nothing gets uploaded

Using latest version 5.0.7 (build 2268)

Re: problem with filemask

Correct file mask is |.svn/


%winscp% /console /command "option confirm off" "option batch on" "open mysite" "put -filemask=|.svn/ %localfolder% %remotefolder% " "exit"

Hi

Thanks for the reply
However, still doesnt seem to be working. Tried adding the filemask to both your and my version of the command, but it still ignores ALL files as soon as I do so.
Last lines of console (when I remove the exit command):
Session started.
Active session [1] xxx
winscp>
Both versions work fine without filemask.

Unknown switch 'filemask'.

I have same requirements. I want to ignore .svn directories from my local directory to remote directory.

Here is my deploy script. Let me know what I am missing here.

option batch abort
option confirm off

open ftp://%3%:%4%@%2%

put -filemask=|.svn/ %1%\*

exit

But, It gives me error saying that Unknown switch 'filemask'.

Thanks,
Gaurang

Filemask switch only works in the version 5 beta. Use quotation marks.



Try:
put -include="* |.svn/ %1%\*"

Not tested so it might need some changing.
