Would be great if i could exclude directories from GoogleDrive from sync.
I use Google-Drive as backup-target for my Android-Tablet and dont want/need those data replicated to my Laptop.

I saw when 0.1.1 was released, the feature 'ignore list' was considered.

I have 0.2.0 running and can't see this option. Anyone know if this has been added?

Same for me. Having some config option to disable certain folders from sync would be great.
My ratio current ratio: 100MB of working files I'd like to sync vs. several GBs of backup data I don't want to include for sync.

Looks like you can cheat this a bit on the cli:

`grive --ignore "(foo/bar|dir1|secret-stuff-i-dont-want-in-the-cloud)`

...works.
