Hello, may I use regular expressions to ignore files or directories

Hello, @zdwork.

Apparently, no, you can't use regular expressions as of now.

Right now the list of strings to be ignored are split and treated as literal strings - as you can see here. And then the paths are also used are literal strings, as seen here.

But I do think it could be useful to use regexes to ignore files.
