Please please please can you add a feature that allows folders to be excluded from the Dropbox account (on windows and mac). For sure I'm not the first person to request this, but I'm yet to find a g...
Ah yes, and in case any Dropbox people are reading here:
You can't even ignore a folder while syncing is paused. So I can't even run my code with paused syncing and then ignore, but have to either
- create empty root folders and sync those first before ignoring and then populating them. And don't forget to sync-pause all other devices in order to avoid conflicts with their own ignored "node_modules" folder.
- if they are automatically deleted and scripted, I have to
- pause all other devices
- run my code
- wait for Dropbox to sync the 40K files to the cloud
- then mark the folder as ignored
- wait for the files to be deleted from the cloud
- re-enabling syncing for all other devices
- smile peacefully about that great solution ;)
