Some files/folders are either generated or transient by nature, and thus it should not be included in the sync in the first place. There should be an ability to right-click on a particular file/directory and click 'exclude' which lets Dropbox ignore it altogether.
This feature is beneficial for programming people who put their source code in Dropbox, and as part of the code build, tons of generated files should not be synced in the first place. For example, people using Node.js use thousands of files under the node_module directory which adds the stress of Dropbox synching and it clutters the cloud version of the data.

Hello!
For sure that Iam not the only that need this Simple option.
We just need a option to add a folder to a ignored list.
Because we need to upload a MAIN folder, but for example, inside this folder we have a folder that dont need to get uploaded.
Thanks!
