The reason the above commit worked is because i’ve stopped trying to get codecov ignore to work and just changed LCOV to removed files before sending things to codecov.
So no: Moving it to root never solved any issue, the 4 times I tried.
Like it says:
“Try lcov ignore” and that worked out great, in stark contrast with codecov.
I’m not really interested in spending time on the issue, it is still broken in root or not. I fixed it for us, but not using codecov, because everything I tried (including moving it to root) didn’t work.
