I agree it's a bit confusing as most of scm doesn't support
includes/excludes for checkout/export operations :-(
Maybe we could mimic that and deleting files/directories after the
whole checkout/export.
Again the reason of seeing that in the doc is because this field is in
AbstractScmMojo class but used only for commit operations.
