I think they forgot to mention "Exclude scanning of markdown files." in the question. Otherwise the question is the same at T5 Q24, including the reference to "subdirectories of the src directory".

I know a previous question had a reference to .md files, but this one does not. One of the requirements is: Scan all the files in the subdirectories of the src directory. Emphasis here on SUBDIRECTORIES, so we dont want files from the src directory itself? So would that mean the 3rd field is: src/* This leaves us with the logic: includes says "include all files in src directory and its subdirectories", and then the paths-ignore acts on top of that and removes the files in the src directory, but leaves the subdirectory files in place So: 1. - 'releases/**' 2. - 'src/**' 3. - 'src/*'

After reviewing some more, this source (https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#onpushpull_requestpull_request_targetpathspaths-ignore) says you cant use both paths and paths-ignore in the push/pull_request event: Use the paths filter when you want to include file path patterns or when you want to both include and exclude file path patterns. Use the paths-ignore filter when you only want to exclude file path patterns. You cannot use both the paths and paths-ignore filters for the same event in a workflow. So...its straight up invalid to do it the way the question says? But if md is not int he question and we only want to include SUBDIRECTORIES of src and not the files in src directory itself, my solution does follow the general paths then paths-ignore logic (adding ignore logic after includes logic will removes the "ignore" matches from the set gathered in the "include")

this is weird. it's quite similar to one of the previous questions but this doesn't mention ignoring .md files yet a choice for paths-ignore is present. I'm still going for '**/*.md' for the third option as the choice is still valid.

In the question there is nothing mentioned for ignoring files, but in the solution we see option *.md . Not quite sure what needs to be ignored as per the question itself. *.md -> the wildcard matches any character but does not match the slash sign => matches all .md files that are in the root of the repository **.md -> matches all files in the repository docs/**/*.md -> A file with a .md suffix anywhere in the docs directory. https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#filter-pattern-cheat-sheet
