How to exclude a dir but still deploy some dir/files under it?

[kailiu42]

Say for example, I would like to exclude the node_modules directory, so I put this in the exlucde list: node_modules/**.

But I still want to deploy a specific dir in it, for example node_modules/a-hypothetical-package. I tried to use the ! operatior of glob pattern like this !node_modules/a-hypothetical-package/** or !(node_modules/a-hypothetical-package/**) in exclude, it doesn't work. I tried to put the node_modules/a-hypothetical-package/** pattern in files list, it doesn't work either.
