appleboy
a dedicated setting for excluding folder
is it possible to exclude certain folders from being copied, if no, please add that
@kirmola has this been added? Also looking for a way to exclude some files and folders
Got a better way of doing it, you have to do individual files and folders separated by comma.
Yeah, I think it's highly unlikely that this feature would be implemented unless there is a specific reason, also, the current method just works, so I guess laziness wins.

on source property, you can send a list of folders by separating them with commas. You can add a ! prefix to the ones you want to skip.
on the example below I copy everything from my . (root) folder except by my node_modules folder:
- name: Copy to server
uses: appleboy/scp-action@v1
with:
host: ${{ secretsSERVER_HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.SERVER_USER }}
port: ${{ secrets.SERVER_PORT }}
key: ${{ secrets.SERVER_KEY }}
source: '.,!node_modules'
target: '~/app'
overwrite: true
rm: true
timeout: 300s
