We are using the new VSO/VSTS style build within TFS on premise, 2015 Update 1 as of yesterday.
During the publish build artifacts stage we want to copy all the files/folders from a root bar 2 sub folders.
ie:
$\somefilestopublish1\...
$\somefilestopublish2\...
$\somefilestoexclude1\...
$\somefilestoexclude2\...
Currently I have **\* as the contents argument which obviously will publish everything. I have tried appending ;-:<exclude_pattern> as suggested by a Google search but that just stopped all output and resulted in an empty folder.
Is there a way to use the minimatch expression to exclude folders or will I need to swap to explicitly selecting the folders to publish instead.

If you trust a file, file type, folder, or a process that Windows Security has detected as malicious, you can stop Windows Security from alerting you or blocking the program by adding the file to the exclusions list. Caution: Only do this for files that you're confident are safe.
From the search function, click the ellipsis to show the files to include and files to exclude text boxes. Enter any files and folder to exclude (separated by commas). From menu choose File ➡️ Preferences ➡️ Settings ➡️ User/Workspace Settings and filter default settings to search .
Minimatch use "!" to exclude the given pattern. You could specify it with following format:
!(somefilestoexclude1|somefilestoexclude2)
Following is the example:
With !(bin|obj), "bin" folder and "obj" folder under "WindowsFormsApplication1" folder are not copied to artifact.

!/$tf/** works for me. I've opted to shorten that to !/$*/**
http://www.globtester.com/ helped. The $ symbol doesn't have to be escaped despite conflicting guidance on msdn: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb383819.aspx.
