====== Exclude Files ======
Sometimes you don't want to sync some files or folders inside a library. To achieve this, create a **seafile-ignore.txt** file in the root folder of a library. This special file specifies the files and folders that Seafile should not sync. Each line in a **ignore.txt** file specifies a pattern. The following pattern format are supported.

  - A blank line matches no files.
  - A line starting with # serves as a comment.
  - Seafile supports wildcards in the pattern. For example, "foo/*" matches "foo/1" and "foo/hello". "foo/?" matches "foo/1" but not "foo/hello". Note that the wildcard character * recursively matches all the paths under a folder. For instance, "foo/*.html" matches "foo/a.html" and "foo/templates/b.html".
  - If the pattern ends with a slash, it would only match a folder. In other words, foo/ will match a folder "foo" and paths underneath it, but will not match a regular file or a symbolic link "foo".
  - If a pattern doesn't end with a slash or a wildcard, it would not match a folder. For example, "foo" can only match regular file "foo" or a symbolic link; while "foo/" and "foo*" match a folder and paths under it.

<file txt seafile-ignore.txt>
# a regular file
test-file

# a dir
test-dir/

# wildcard *
test-star1/*
test-star2/*.html

# wildcard ?
test-qu1/?.html
test-qu2/?/
