Ability to set ignored files in settings

I would recommend that, rather than increasing the list of ignored files, we should have a list of the files which should be included. Off the top of my head, I would expect .ino, .cpp, .c, and .h files, but there may be more. @dmiddlecamp @towynlin @m-mcgowan can you guys lean in here on the correct file list?

Also this behavior should be reflected in www.github.com/spark/spark-cli

I've been going back and forth on that myself, this seems like the better approach, we can always add filetypes later if we discover we missed some. I was going to update the CLI today to have better include/ignore matching using glob, so I can make this change soon.

Sure, whitelisting file extensions .ino, .cpp, .c, .h for user files sounds good. That should work for now, and then down the road when people start writing crazy firmware extensions in other languages they'll need an override.

maybe we also whitelist .o, .a, .bin? things that could get compiled in? I don’t know the types of files we might get

Hmmm.. sure:

• .o
• .a
• .dll
• .so
• .dylib

Maybe it's a good idea to make this user configurable somehow. Let every project have a project file similar to a .git-ignore file that defines which files get included and/or which get excluded.
This would also be a great place to define which libraries get included by your project (see #14 and #9).

@Bitbored yeah the #39 would act as .gitignore. Setting in this issue would be global one, which can be overwritten by .ignore/.include files.
