[Request] Allow specific file or folder names about eslint-plugin-check-file HOT 4 OPEN

@chimericdream You can write a glob expression to do this, and there is a similar example in the documentation:

To exclude tests folder in src, use the glob expression src/!(tests)/**/ to get the target folders.

from eslint-plugin-check-file.

That works well enough if you know the precise location of the file or folder you want to ignore, but in our case we want to ignore all __mocks__ directories in a monorepo, regardless of whether they are at package/src/__mocks__, package/test/__mocks__, package/__mocks__, etc. I didn't think glob matching could do that kind of complex wildcard.

from eslint-plugin-check-file.

Here is a screenshot of an example glob that would exclude __mocks__ directories at the lowest level in the folder structure, but nowhere else. I tried variations on this pattern to see if I could match the files on top without including any of the paths on bottom, but was unable to find a valid pattern.

@chimericdream Could you share a minimal reproducible monorepo project so I can work on this? And it look like there is a way to work round this issue #38 (comment).
