Yep! An antonym for --refresh is --refresh-exclude=<argument>, but you know this? I use --refreshexclude .* on the command line to suppress automatic cache refreshes. It works very well. I picked up the idea to use .* as a catch-all for everything from somewhere else, possibly this mailing list or somewhere in the GiP documentation. GiP seems quite happy to regard the hyphen and equals sign as optional, so I exclude them out of sheer bl**dy-mindedness!
