--file exclude folder(s)

[wincmd64]

eget.exe dl --file "^Documentation" --asset "x64,7z,^.pdb." FarGroup/FarManager

I need to exclude several folders when unpacking - is this possible?

[wincmd64]

...there are also files without extensions (in subfolders) and other conditions. To illustrate, here's what I'm trying to achieve:

gci -Directory | Where-Object { $_.Name -match "^(Documentation|Encyclopedia|PluginSDK|VisualElements)$" } | Remove-Item -Recurse

Get-ChildItem -Recurse -File | Where-Object {
    # files with extensions: .map, .cmd, .md, .txt, .diz
    $_.Name -match '\.(map|cmd|md|txt|diz)$' -or
    
    # files without extension
    ($_.Extension -eq '') -or
    
    # .hlf or .lng files if there is NO 'eng' in the name
    ($_.Name -match '\.(hlf|lng)$' -and $_.BaseName -notmatch 'eng')
} | Remove-Item -Force

Regex include/exclude filters for --file are now available on master.

Examples:

eget dl --file "REG:(?i)\.(hlf|lng)$" owner/repo
eget dl --file "^REG:(?i)(^|/)(Documentation|Encyclopedia|PluginSDK|VisualElements)(/|$),^REG:(?i)\.(map|cmd|md|txt|diz)$" FarGroup/FarManager

REG: includes matches and ^REG: excludes them. Regexes use Go syntax and match both normalized archive paths and file names.

It looks like everything is fine 👍
