Hi, I'd like to request support for excluding paths in mkfs.erofs similar to the -ef (exclude file) option for mksquashfs. An option that takes a file containing a list of paths and glob patterns should be sufficient.
For a simple use case: I want to build an EROFS image from a Gentoo install root, but I don't need development files in it. An exclude option would allow generating a smaller image without the unused files while keeping them in the writable source path so additional packages could be installed on it later. This would have /usr/include and /usr/lib/*.a for some basic entries in its exclude file. If this isn't something that anyone else is interested in implementing in the near future, I can try it myself and send a patch after I have some time to get more familiar with the code. Thanks. David
