Option to specify exclude patterns on the command line

[mgedmin]

I'd like to use when-changed to run blogofile whenever any of my website sources changes, but unfortunately blogofile writes the output into a subdirectory of the source directory, which triggers when-changed again. Infinite loop.

I'd love to be able to tell when-changed to please ignore changes to website/_site.

Can you use source/*(filetype you care about)?

[Cypher1]

@mgedmin did that work for you?

I've switched to livereload in the mean time, so this issue doesn't bother me personally any more.

+1, exclude pattern would be nice. E.g I want to restart Docker container on every code changes (. folder) except those in the lib/ folder where I just want to restart Apache within the Docker container. There are probably many examples similar to this.
