.gitignore for Dropbox
If you want a binary, head to the releases tab. Otherwise, you can check out the source on Github.
Download the latest .zip from the releases tab. Run ./install
in the resulting folder.
Add a .dbignore
to a directory to tell Dropbox to ignore certain files. Files will be ignored if they match any of the patterns in the .dbignore
file. See the gitignore docs for more information.
Settings for dbignore are located at ~/Dropbox/.dbignore_config
in json format. Currently, the only supported setting is changing the name of the ignore files. If you want to use .gitignore
instead of .dbignore
, add {"ignore_file_name":".gitignore"}
to ~/Dropbox/.dbignore_config
.
Currently, the only supported platform is OSX. Dbignore has been tested on 10.9 but should work on earlier versions.
