grunt-contrib-jshint ignores has no effect
I would like to exclude libs directory from being lint'ed. However, ignores in options and planted .jshintignore file in project directory won't make libs to be excluded.
jshint: {
options: {
smarttabs: true,
ignores: ['public/js/libs/**/*.js']
},
all: [
'Gruntfile.js',
'public/js/**/*.js'
]
},
grunt version:
grunt-cli v0.1.11
grunt v0.4.2

What did I miss out?
Answer
ignores is a jshint option and expects specific files. It's better to use the idiomatic Grunt negate ! to exclude files:
jshint: {
options: {
smarttabs: true
},
all: [
'Gruntfile.js',
'public/js/**/*.js',
'!public/js/libs/**/*.js'
],
},
