How can I exclude file extensions form being synced? I have a mega big temp file (temp database log file) and it slows down my entire laptop. K
Hi all, I've recently implemented dropboxignore which is a shell script that allows you to ignore files and folder based on glob patterns (like .gitignore). This is not a solution but a walk-around. Hope to find it usefull. Any feedback is more than welcome.
Hopefully Dropbox will implement this. MegaSync has this feature where you can simply select files based on extension and they are excluded from the sync.
It was 2018 since this was 1st raised. Is there any hope of this being implemented?
Now we're onto WHY do it: there are a number of large and vital programs that create temporary files, such as CAD and database programs, that would like to be integrated with dropbox.
I would like to throw a vote for extension exclusion as well. In my case, the software in use creates a temp file next to the file that needs to be in Dropbox and there is no configuration options for its location. But furthermore, this temp file is locked, so Dropbox cannot even synchronize it and just stays in "synchronizing" state.
I want to push for this feature as well.
My Adobe indesign creates *.idlk files (lock file) whenever I open a project file.
These lock files will forever fail to sync in the background which is super annoying.
