Can I exclude all folders with specific names?

Post by TakashiSasaki »

Hi all,

I want to exclude all folders with specific names (such as .svn .bzr .metadata etc.)
and also want to exclude folders and files under them.
"Add Folder", "Add File", "Add Filter" does not meet my demand.
Can anyone tell me the way to do this ?

Thanks ;)

I can use Exclamation mark " ! " to do this.

I guess your edit means that you've got it.


In any case, I believe this should work?

Code: Select all

!.svn\  !.bzr\  !.metadata\
The trailing \ is important (as is the "not" !).
