Exclude Files

Use:

-x <name-or-patter> <name-or-pattern> ...

If there is no space between "-x" and the pattern, just one value is assumed, otherwise multiple values are assumed.

If you want to exclude an entire directory (the content and the directory itself), then you need to do something like this, where you specify the top level directory and its content, recursively, and also escaped to survive the shell interpretation:

zip -r ./target/something.zip * -x IntelliJ/\*
