Option to exclude paths

[mikaelstaldal]

It would be nice to have an option to exclude certain paths from formatting. Now you can specify paths to include with the filesPathPattern option, but if you want to exclude multiple paths (and include everything else), the regexp will get very messy.

I want to exclude a few paths and include everything else.

Agree.

I have projects which have generated code from another tool which doesn't conform. Would like to be able to ignore that code while applying formatting to the rest of the project. As of right now I imagine I'm going to have to skip execution for those modules, whereas I'd like to just skip it for the generated code.

Do you still want this @mikaelstaldal ?

Yes.

+1 for this feature. I have some imported files from another project that don't conform to the formatting. In order to track future diffs, it would be better to leave them as the original formatting.
