How do I specify a folder path to exclude in Copy Files?

I have a folder at the top of a directory tree that I want to exclude from a Copy Files step. There are other folders further down the tree with the same name that I want to copy.

I've tried putting /root/excludeFolder in the Exclude list, but that doesn't seem to work. Is there a simple way to achieve this?

At present I'm copying the bogus folder then deleting it, but that is a bit naff .

Quoting my own comments back to me - now that's a bit mean.

In this particular case the folders to be copied are not known ahead of time, except that the folder not to copy will be present and there will be folders of the same name further down the tree.

Perhaps a multiple folder match (to the tail of the path only) for the include and exclude lists is something that could be added to a future version?
