Wouldn't be great to have a .droppoxignore file that works as the .gitignore file?

On Linux Dropbox has a client (`dropbox`) and a deamon (`dropboxd`).
The client has the `exclude` command, which you can use to exclude directories. E.g. to exclude node_modules from Dropbox you can enter `dropbox exclude add ./node_modules`
`dropbox help exclude` will print the help information:
dropbox exclude [list]
dropbox exclude add [DIRECTORY] [DIRECTORY] ...
dropbox exclude remove [DIRECTORY] [DIRECTORY] ...
"list" prints a list of directories currently excluded from syncing.
"add" adds one or more directories to the exclusion list, then resynchronizes Dropbox.
"remove" removes one or more directories from the exclusion list, then resynchronizes Dropbox.
With no arguments, executes "list".
Any specified path must be within Dropbox.
