Inspectopedia 2024.3 Help

Redundant wildcard

Reports wildcards that become redundant when the “**” wildcard is used in the same section.

The “**” wildcard defines a broader set of files than any other wildcard. That is why, any other wildcard used in the same section has no affect and can be removed.
