Suggestion: Revisions folder #26

This is more of a suggestion. I like the idea of this plugin a lot and I'm thinking about using it, but I am to lazy to edit all my content-queries to ignore the revisions folder ;)

Wouldn't it be possible to name the folder .revision? Making it invisible should cause that it automatically isn't included in the results of content-queries (at least when running a linux/unix based OS).

You then "just" have to make sure the panel can access the folder.

Thanks for your suggestion!

The reason why it's great for me to use the content folder is that I can use many of the built in functions. However I don't think they supports to add a dot:

$page->create($uri, $template, $data = array());

You can however use this plugin:

https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-init-controller

Then you only need to create one single controller and with that remove the revisions folder with a collection filter (if you have the knowledge).

For the future I have plans to have an option to enable removal of the revisions folder automatically from all the queries. Why it would only be an option is because I will then use the template component and if another plugin uses it they would collide. A component can only be extended once.

That's a good tip, I'll try it that way. Thanks!
