Place a flag in Windows to ignore System Volume Information folder

[murpg]

By default the Windows "System Volume Information" is locked because Windows uses this folder for certain system-level features. The permissions are set to prevent users—and programs without the appropriate permissions—from tampering with the files inside and interfering with important system functions.

Are you able to please put a flag for the GO binary to ignore this folder? It throws and error. You can reproduce by going to the root level of any Windows drive and running the binary.

Hi @murpg. We currently have a list of ignored folders but they're hardcoded internally and not exposed through config currently. For now our recommendation is to run it on source/project directories and not for a full drive which may have system folders.
