How to exclude subdirectory and content from nuget package

So I have a website that I am trying to package for Octopus Deploy.

I have the following folder structure:

Web | Views | WantThis Dontwantthis WantThis1 WantThis2 ... (lots more) Scripts

I'm trying to rule out "Dontwantthisfolder"

So my nuspec looks like this:

... <file src="..\Web\Views\**\*.*" exclude="**\Dontwantthis\**" target="web\Views" /> ...

It doesn't work, although I still get the "Dontwantthis" folder.

Does anyone know how I can achieve this?

You are very close. Try the following:

<files>
    <file src="..\Web\Views\**\*.*" exclude="..\Web\Views\DontWantThis\*" target="Web\Views" />
</files>


I was able to get this to exclude DontWantThis

with the following filesystem structure:

Root
   |
   Source
        |
        Test.nuspec
   Web
     |
     Scripts
           |
           Script.js
     Views
         |
         DontWantThis
                    |
                    Bad.cshml
         WantThis
                |
                Good.cshtml
         ...
