Feature description

When I'm diffing source trees, I would like to be able to ignore build directories (_build, build, dist, etc.) and dependency directories (node_modules, deps, etc.) that are managed by build and package tools.

Why is this useful?

It would speed up content comparison because node_modules wouldn't have to be compared between two different trees.
