Describe the bug
Perhaps this is intended behavior, but .* in .gitignore causes "Sync Destination" to sync an empty folder.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. With the Databrick vscode extension, use "Sync Destination" to synchronize a local folder and Databricks workspace location.
  2. Add .* to the .gitignore file.
  3. All files are deleted from the remote Databricks workspace location.

Thanks for reporting the issue. I can reproduce and we'll figure out a fix.

I may be stating the obvious, but your intent is to only ignore files starting with a ., correct?

Yes, .* is intended to ignore all files and folders starting with a ., but it is not intended to mean the current directory (.) or parent directory (..).
