Hi Martin, I tend to think it would be logical to include the exclude options in the mv command as well as in the get and put.
It's impossible to do a wildcard * move and omit the directories.
Example if I want to move the root from a website into a folder but not the whole
structure with subfolders.

Re: BUG - MV does not honor option exclude */ for directories
Well, it is not a bug. There's no mention of "option exclude" forking for "mv" command. It works for transfers and synchronization only.
