gurus. I have a problem and i dont know how to solve it. I am working with Git and Compass/SASS on some projects. Now i want to protect those directories. When i go only to the folder its all fine – i get what i expected a 403 forbidden.
location ~ /\.git {
deny all;
}
But when i try use the full path to the config file from git the browser start to download it.
Same scenario with compass. There is a config.rb
file within the folder which also starts to download it. How can i prevent this behaviour?
How can i deny downloading specific files?
