Dropbox Product ManagerCut the Clutter: Ignore Files Feature is now live
Update: This feature is now live and available to all individual plan customers! Thank you to all our testers, and share your feedback with the team, we're still eager to hear from you!
For ye...
I understand that there is one single file in the root folder (rules.dropboxignore) that defines all the rules.
Git and Docker had another approach (one or multiple .gitignore and .dockerignore files), and I think that could have benefits. It may be more complex to manage, but having .dropboxignore files could define different rules on different folders. Would that be much more complex to develop?
Both .gitignore and .dockerignore use the same "language". Will rules.dropboxignore follow the same logic, or will use it's own rule language?
There is also a work done in this direction:
