Possibility to use .gitignore (?)

[faustort]

Behavior:
Zip folder desired folder using .gitignore directives.

Ex of desired folder:

• /node_modules/
• /.git/
• .gitignore
• index.html
• orther.rar
• something_should_not_be_here.zip
• style.css

Ex of .gitignore:
*.zip
*.rar
/node_modules/

Example of zipped file:

• index.html
• style.css

// Could be a .distignore too

Resolution:
Add an option/flag to make it possible.

Real world example using tar:
tar -czvf build.tar.gz -X ./desired_folder_to_bundle/.distignore ./desired_folder_to_bundle

Thanks for this amazing work, this enhancement will be very useful.
