Description

In cloud foundry documentation https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/devguide/deploy-apps/prepare-to-deploy.html we can find following sentence:

"By default, when you push an application, all files in the application’s project directory tree are uploaded to your Cloud Foundry instance, except version control or configuration files with the following file extensions:

.cfignore

...."
It will be great if gradle plugin also interpret properly .cfignore file content.
