What the title says. You can add folders to the .gitdepsignore file to omit things that you do not want/need.

For example,
I can create a .gitdepsignore file and add "/Engine/Documentation/**" so that it will not download anything in the Engine/Documentation folder when you run the Setup.bat file.

This functionality helps a lot when you want to reduce the download size, engine compile times(if some unnecessary plugin folders are added to the .gitdepsignore file), and the overall cost on disk. It would be awesome if it is possible to omit datasmith and other unnecessary stuff too.

This looks interesting. I'll check it out when I come back.
