is there a way to prevent certain *.xml files from being deployed when just having

~/Objects/*

in deploy.xml? having some sort of project level ".sdfignore" file capability or being able to put that file in a sub-directory of /Objects to omit would be nice

This is what

deploy.xml

is for, though. Instead of using

~/Objects/*

, use something like

~/Objects/deploy/*

and place the XML you'd like to deploy in there. Anything outside of

deploy/

would be ignored.

we keep a pretty deeply nested /Objects with subfolders so there isnt one main "deploy" dir with everything, I've done somewhat as you described by manually listing out every subdirectory I want to deploy but it is a pain generally

usecase is just when deploying a large project, I have ran onto multiple occasions where there is just one or two objects that fails so the whole deploy halts and doesnt go through, I would prefer to temporarily just specify omitting those rather than briefly moving the files elsewhere during the deploy or having to list out explicitly everything that I am deploying excluding those couple of objects

I suppose my suggestion is to make the main

deploy

directory (or whatever name you find appropriate) and relocate the working XML accordingly
