Amazon S3 and JetS3t ignoring unwanted files

It is pretty simple to sync files using JetS3t Synchronize. Some folders I synch contain files I don't want to store on Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) such as .svn folders for Subversion. The Ignore Files on Upload feature of JetS3t Synchronize is useful. Simply add a .jets3t-ignore file in the folder having files/folders you want to ignore then specify file/directory paths to ignored within the .jet3t-ignore file. See my Amazon S3 and JetS3t synchronizing for more about using JetS3t.

Attached to this entry is a snapshot of one of my .jets3t-ignore file.
