Set the level of recurse into subdirectories

[dewey]

Is there a way to restrict the level of recurse into subdirectories to for example only watch the top level directory in ~/dir/ but not the contents of ~/dir/anotherone/?

Thanks!

There is no specific option for limiting recursion depth; however, you can use a RegEx with the ignoreCustomPatterns option.

The RegEx would be something along the lines of ^~/dir/.*/.* because you want to ignore anything that is child item of a the subdirectory, not the subdirectory itself.

Regex works. Otherwise fund it.
