Could you give some use cases where using a pattern to skip some files is necessary, but would also match some folders that should not be skipped (or vice versa)? You can easily write a regex that only targets folders, or more accurately, the contents of these folders (like /cache/ ); however targeting files but not folders having the same name is probably not possible.

We are using PCRE2 for our regular expression engine.
