I need to remove a hidden folder using the Selective Sync feature. Can I do it?

I want to remove my .git folder from sync, using selective sync, but hidden folders are not shown in folder list to check.

    Hi Lordskynner, happy Monday, I hope you're doing well!

     

    Can you confirm that your .git folder is inside your Dropbox folder? 

     

    One more question: are the rest of the folders that I see on your screenshot "hidden ones"? 

     

    Let me know more, and we'll take a closer look into this!
