What this PR does / why we need it:
This fixes an error that would come up e.g. when an action config in the project root excluded a subdirectory containing another action config.
In that setup, the file list for the action in the subdirectory would be empty because the file list had been cached using the exclude config applied when computing the file list for the action config at the root level (which included no files for the excluded subdirectory).
This was fixed by adding another level of caching to
GitRepoHandler
that accounts for different includes/excludes and filter functions for the same path.Special notes for your reviewer:
Note the slightly awkward clarification section about the difference between the exclude behavior of
subtree
andrepo
when no includes are configured.In a follow-up to this, we really should address #5582.
I think bringing our include/exclude behavior completely in line with Git's would make things easier to reason about for our users.
