The option copyWithoutTemplating (and depracted copyWithoutRender) would require listing all files in a path to include even if there was only one or two files that should still be templated while skipping all others. This works fine when just one or two files or paths that need to be copied without being templated, however when there are many files and only one or two should be templated, it becomes more error prone to try and maintain a complete list and ensure others will update it correctly. While it's possible to use separate paths to avoid this issue, it results in subsequently needing to move files around, or use separate template calls, this makes it more difficult to maintain a template logically. The existing template code already makes use of 'globby', which supports negative matching to explicitly exclude individual paths from other wildcard matches. The existing code would iterate over each entry calling globby separately for each pattern passed in. This would skip globby's ability to have negative matches remove previously matched paths. This change switches to pass the entire list of patterns to globby in a single call, leaving it up to globby to parse and return the entire set in a single operation.

Backstage
🏖️ From October 30th - November 5th, employees at Spotify will have a week to recharge, which means all core maintainers & some project area maintainers are out of office. Right after that, we will go into the week of BackstageCon + KubeCon in Chicago, hoping to see some of you there! Expect slower responses & reviews during the 2 weeks, but we're on it for urgent issues. We will be up to speed again on November 13th! 🏖️
What is Backstage?
Backstage is an open platform for building developer portals. Powered by a centralized software catalog, Backstage restores order to your microservices and infrastructure and enables your product teams to ship high-quality code quickly without compromising autonomy.
Backstage unifies all your infrastructure tooling, services, and documentation to create a streamlined development environment from end to end.
Out of the box, Backstage includes:
- Backstage Software Catalog for managing all your software such as microservices, libraries, data pipelines, websites, and ML models
- Backstage Software Templates for quickly spinning up new projects and standardizing your tooling with your organization’s best practices
- Backstage TechDocs for making it easy to create, maintain, find, and use technical documentation, using a "docs like code" approach
- Plus, a growing ecosystem of open source plugins that further expand Backstage’s customizability and functionality
Backstage was created by Spotify but is now hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as an Incubation level project. For more information, see the announcement.
