I just wanted to add, I have set this up and I basically copied my .gitignore and put it into the rules.dropbox file at the top and level and it seems to be doing the job.
vladgasan - is that the expected pattern? As in .gitignore type matching.

TheMonarch correct - most .gitignore rules should work in rules.dropboxignore file, with a few exceptions outlined in How to prevent files from syncing article.
