There should be a way to regex match certain files and just ignore them in update. I though it is a great idea to sync my main work folder, but now various massive files that are trivial to regenerate gets synched and dropbox is constantly updating and chumming moving hundreds of megabytes around. There are hacks around that, but I'm just not very excited. It is a very basic functionality to have!

Dropbox StaffHi Jake,
The Dropbox desktop client is designed to sync everything in your Dropbox folder. If you don't want it to sync something, just move it out of your Dropbox folder. Please bear in mind as well that we only actually upload unique files once, so if you move a large file elsewhere in your Dropbox, or move it out then back in again, all that will happen is that it will need to reindex in its new location, not be uploaded to our servers.
Hope this helps!
