--exclude doesn't work? #213

Closed netjune closed 6 years ago

netjune commented 6 years ago

I tried the followings, they all didn't ignore the file "test.sh".

fswatch -r -t -x --exclude '.*\.sh' .
fswatch -r -t -x --exclude '.*\\.sh' .
fswatch -r -t -x --exclude '*.sh' .
fswatch -r -t -x --exclude '*sh' .

There's not sufficient information to troubleshoot this (OS, monitor, unexpected output).

Just as an idea, please check #210 and see whether that may be happening to you.
