Question: how to exclude dirs/files during packing? #189

For example, if I create a new box (with packr v2) like

box := packr.New("foo", "../foo")

but would like to have the ../foo/.git directory with its contents not included in the box, is there a way to do that?

https://github.com/gobuffalo/packr/issues/63#issuecomment-435606947 seems to suggest that there is a way; do you have an example for that approch by any chance?

Sorry, that’s for parsing. You’ll want to create your own store. The video in the README demonstrates how to it.

If I understand correctly, one way would be to just have multiple boxes for each subdirectory. Not optimal solution, but would do as a workaround.
