Hello Product Hunt πŸ‘‹! I built dbignore because despite being the #1 most requested feature for Dropbox, it still hasn't been added as a first-class citizen for Dropbox. dbignore solves that problem. It runs as a background process, automatically applying the rules you've specified as files are created, renamed, or moved. Rule creation is done following the same patterns as the .gitignore files are might already be familiar with. I can't wait to hear all your feedback!

I pressed launch and saw the url for this is /dbignore-2. Apparently this has been done before. This is unrelated to the other .dbignore project, which seems to have died sadly.

Is this officially from dropbox or?

@sentry_co No, it's a tool to directly utilize dropbox own command line flag in a reasonable manner.
