Ignore files when using --watch

[hutber]

I'm using devtools to start up my server file with

devtools bin/www --watch

Which is great and works perfectly along side gulp for me.

But whenever I change a jade/pug file devtools will reload the server which is a little too extreme.

Can I get it to ignore files?

Any ideas on this chaps :D?

I have added a #113 pull request, so you can use the .devtoolrc file to create an array of excluded paths.

{ ... "watcher": { "ignored": ["public"]}, ... }

So keep an eye open on that, for the time being if you wish to do this yourself,

add this line just under line AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\devtool\lib\file-watch.js:12 (windows global installation)
if(opt.config.watcher.ignored) ignores = ignores.concat(opt.config.watcher.ignored);

@mattdesl Could you please merge the change I made? or if you guys are going to be inactive on project, could you add some new people to contribute and manage it in the future?
