    An opinionated nextcloud ignore list for developers (sync-exclude.lst)

The latest nextcloud server versions will have ransomware detection automatically
enabled, meaning that syncing common developer file types (e.g. .lock) will return errors.

Fatal	webdav	OCA\DAV\Connector\Sabre\Exception\Forbidden: Ransomware file detected.
Prevented upload of ..py/bokeh/secrets.tar.enc because it matches extension pattern
".enc"

If you are syncing complex, nested work directories as a developer, the following
list can be used, as a starting point, to exclude certain common file types and folders.
Examples:

.git/: folder will not be synced (but the latest files checked out, will)
node_modules/: (JS) will not be synced, preventing syncing of a massive quantity of unnecessary dependencies
cython_debug/: C-Extensions for Python debug directories
_site/: Commonly used for building static sites and serving temporary files (mkdocs serve, hugo serve)

Some files indeed are synced:

.env files, since I do not version these in git

The motivation behind this approach is that Nextcloud should not be used as a backup
solution, but for syncing working files. For instance, if you want to continue
working at home on selected files (*.md, *.odt), this will be possible. For checking
out the latest git repositories, or dependencies,
use the native approach (e.g. git pull for repositories, npm install for node_modules/).
Note: The file list is not exhaustive, please comment or update.
