Allow exclusion of files by an extension #338

Closed ppetr closed 3 months ago

ppetr commented 5 months ago

Currently --exclude=*.foo doesn't seem to work. It would be quite useful for example for files whose content is being created and yet unfinished.

Also please document how to use this in the man page.

Hello @ppetr I believe this issue is now fixed

Please note that you should probably use quotes around the pattern: --exclude="*.foo"

The behavior is documented in the man page (check for "exclude")

Best regards,
