  []{#sec-fileset}

  The [`lib.fileset`](#sec-functions-library-fileset) library allows you to work with _file sets_.
  A file set is a (mathematical) set of local files that can be added to the Nix store for use in Nix derivations.
  File sets are easy and safe to use, providing obvious and composable semantics with good error messages to prevent mistakes.

  ## Overview {#sec-fileset-overview}

  Basics:
  - [Implicit coercion from paths to file sets](#sec-fileset-path-coercion)

  - [`lib.fileset.maybeMissing`](#function-library-lib.fileset.maybeMissing):

    Create a file set from a path that may be missing.

  - [`lib.fileset.trace`](#function-library-lib.fileset.trace)/[`lib.fileset.traceVal`](#function-library-lib.fileset.trace):

    Pretty-print file sets for debugging.

  - [`lib.fileset.toSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toSource):

    Add files in file sets to the store to use as derivation sources.

  - [`lib.fileset.toList`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toList):

    The list of files contained in a file set.

  Combinators:
  - [`lib.fileset.union`](#function-library-lib.fileset.union)/[`lib.fileset.unions`](#function-library-lib.fileset.unions):

    Create a larger file set from all the files in multiple file sets.

  - [`lib.fileset.intersection`](#function-library-lib.fileset.intersection):

    Create a smaller file set from only the files in both file sets.

  - [`lib.fileset.difference`](#function-library-lib.fileset.difference):

    Create a smaller file set containing all files that are in one file set, but not another one.

  Filtering:
  - [`lib.fileset.fileFilter`](#function-library-lib.fileset.fileFilter):

    Create a file set from all files that satisisfy a predicate in a directory.

  Utilities:
  - [`lib.fileset.fromSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.fromSource):

    Create a file set from a `lib.sources`-based value.

  - [`lib.fileset.gitTracked`](#function-library-lib.fileset.gitTracked)/[`lib.fileset.gitTrackedWith`](#function-library-lib.fileset.gitTrackedWith):

    Create a file set from all tracked files in a local Git repository.

  ## Implicit coercion from paths to file sets {#sec-fileset-path-coercion}

  All functions accepting file sets as arguments can also accept [paths](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/values.html#type-path) as arguments.
  Such path arguments are implicitly coerced to file sets containing all files under that path:
  - A path to a file turns into a file set containing that single file.
  - A path to a directory turns into a file set containing all files _recursively_ in that directory.

  If the path points to a non-existent location, an error is thrown.

  ::: {.note}
  Just like in Git, file sets cannot represent empty directories.
  Because of this, a path to a directory that contains no files (recursively) will turn into a file set containing no files.
  :::

  :::{.note}
  File set coercion does _not_ add any of the files under the coerced paths to the store.
  Only the [`toSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toSource) function adds files to the Nix store, and only those files contained in the `fileset` argument.
  This is in contrast to using [paths in string interpolation](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/values.html#type-path), which does add the entire referenced path to the store.
  :::

  ### Example {#sec-fileset-path-coercion-example}

  Assume we are in a local directory with a file hierarchy like this:
  ```
  ├─ a/
  │  ├─ x (file)
  │  └─ b/
  │     └─ y (file)
  └─ c/
     └─ d/
  ```

  Here's a listing of which files get included when different path expressions get coerced to file sets:
  - `./.` as a file set contains both `a/x` and `a/b/y` (`c/` does not contain any files and is therefore omitted).
  - `./a` as a file set contains both `a/x` and `a/b/y`.
  - `./a/x` as a file set contains only `a/x`.
  - `./a/b` as a file set contains only `a/b/y`.
  - `./c` as a file set is empty, since neither `c` nor `c/d` contain any files.

      - `name` (String): The name of the file

      - `type` (String, one of `"regular"`, `"symlink"` or `"unknown"`): The type of the file.
        This matches result of calling [`builtins.readFileType`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-readFileType) on the file's path.

      - `hasExt` (String -> Bool): Whether the file has a certain file extension.
        `hasExt ext` is true only if `hasSuffix ".${ext}" name`.

        This also means that e.g. for a file with name `.gitignore`,

  /*
    Create a file set containing all [Git-tracked files](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Recording-Changes-to-the-Repository) in a repository.
    The first argument allows configuration with an attribute set,
    while the second argument is the path to the Git working tree.

    `gitTrackedWith` does not perform any filtering when the path is a [Nix store path](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/store/store-path.html#store-path) and not a repository.
    In this way, it accommodates the use case where the expression that makes the `gitTracked` call does not reside in an actual git repository anymore,
    and has presumably already been fetched in a way that excludes untracked files.
    Fetchers with such equivalent behavior include `builtins.fetchGit`, `builtins.fetchTree` (experimental), and `pkgs.fetchgit` when used without `leaveDotGit`.

    If you don't need the configuration,
    you can use [`gitTracked`](#function-library-lib.fileset.gitTracked) instead.

    This is equivalent to the result of [`unions`](#function-library-lib.fileset.unions) on all files returned by [`git ls-files`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-ls-files)
    (which uses [`--cached`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-ls-files#Documentation/git-ls-files.txt--c) by default).

    :::{.warning}
    Currently this function is based on [`builtins.fetchGit`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-fetchGit)
    As such, this function causes all Git-tracked files to be unnecessarily added to the Nix store,
    without being re-usable by [`toSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toSource).

    This may change in the future.
