hi.

I've been importing and reimporting a test site,

and well, I wanted directories starting with __ etc to come through.

however I found that if you don't have at least one item it it does not parse correctly.

instead, when you go to import, it does not expand the file tree. -- it's not at all obvious what the problem is.
so, currently i'm using: "CSV/?" a blank text field will actually match EVERTHING and you won't be able to import anything.

cheers. Dominic

The file exclusion pattern logic was created over 4 years ago. The subdirectory globbing feature was added 6 months ago.
There's a good chance that file exclusions + directory recursion logic may be a bit unsynchronized. Yeah.

Like the LISTINGS are always hidden in the UI (logic in one place) but the recursion doesn't obey the same rule.
:-(
