[pass] [PATCH] Add find/search command

[Alexis]

Hi Jason,
I'm happy to hear that the feature will land and I like your
improvements to the wording in the help and man page.

I somewhat dislike the extra echo, that prints the search terms,
since these are still visible as the commandline arguments.
Or is this only for debugging purposes at the moment?

I do agree, that not matching directory names is a shortcoming.
A quick look at the tree.c reveals that the following
simple patch allows tree to also list directories that match the
given pattern and prune the ones that don't.

When a directory matches the given pattern should only the directory
or even all of it's files shown by tree?

diff --git a/tree.c b/tree.c
index 19cf368..5eea9a5 100644

+++ b/tree.c

       }

  sp = *dir;
  for(p=dir;*p;p++) *p = *(p+1);
  n--;

This patch is obviously far from finished, and yet it shows
that commandline options to include directory names when
matching with -P or -I are feasible.
I'll dig a little deeper...
