I think you should be able to write a custom resource selector to do this, let's say you'd typedef it as "returnfirstmatch" than you could use it as
<restrict> <union> <fileset dir="Dir1"/> <fileset dir="Dir2"/> <fileset dir="Dir3"/> </union> <returnsfirstmatch/> </restrict>
shouldn't be too difficult to do, but I don't think it can be done with stock Ant, at least not in a generic way. For you specific case
<union> <fileset dir="Dir1"/> <fileset dir="Dir2"> <not> <present targetdir="Dir1"/> </not> </fileset> <fileset dir="Dir3"> <not> <or> <present targetdir="Dir1"/> <present targetdir="Dir2"/> </or> </not> </fileset> </union>
would work, but I'd really choose the custom selector route.
