[Feature Request] Local mode needs something like .gitignore #176

Disclaimer

Please make sure all the items below is checked (i.e., prefixed with "- [x]")

  • [x] The request feature has not been addressed in the feature request list.
  • [x] The design of the feature does not require detailed discussion, or existing discussion with drawn conclusion can be found in Discussions Area at: [paste the link here]

Motivation

Please give strong enough reason(s) why the feature is demanded.

  • This feature enables the users to select files that don't need to be uploaded when they select to open the project locally.
  • I used git to manager the local files, which will generates xxx.git temporary files. These files were uploaded to the overleaf, and be synchronized to local. This is annoying. We need a feature for setting the ignorable files.

Feature Description

A clear and concise description of what you want to happen under what circumstance.

  • A way for selecting the ignorable files in local mode.

@bitosky Please use "Configure sync ignore patterns" for the local open folder. The details are here: https://github.com/iamhyc/Overleaf-Workshop/blob/master/docs/wiki.md#local-replica-source-control

I will update the default ignore pattern **/*.git later in the future release.
