I have some tree structure:
/a
/a/a
/a/b
..
/a/z
/b
.. (thousands of folders)
/z
How can I control just /a/a folder?
What exclude file should be?
The way we use now is:
/a/*
/b/
.. (thousands of folders)
/z/
!/a/a
But it is very not nice looking and hard for maintenance...

Don't know your usecase, but isn't it easier to just create the repository
in /a/a? Then you won't have to exlude anything.
If you must, you can just use something like:
*
!/a
/a/*
!/a/a

Thank you very much!
The exclamation mark solves my problem.
I can not create repository inside /a, because I need control /b also )
