-----------

If some files should not be synchronized to (or from) other devices, a file called
``.stignore`` can be created containing file patterns to ignore. The
``.stignore`` file must be placed in the root of the synced folder. The
``.stignore`` file itself will never be synced to other devices, although it can
``#include`` files that *are* synchronized between devices. All patterns are
relative to the synced folder root.
