I'm trying to use VS:Code's remote workspace feature on a server that I don't have root access to. I'm limited to 8192 watchers, and VS:code uses all of them because there are lots of files in my build directories. I don't really need file watching that badly, so I was wondering if anyone knows a simple way to just disable it. I've tried adding:
"files.watcherExclude": {
"**/**": true,
"**/*/**": true,
to my user and remote settings, but it's still attempting to watch everything. Does anyone know of a solution to this?
Thanks!
