# --------------------------------------------------------------

# Define the source file that represent the files to be exclude
file=.gitignore

# Define zip package's name
filename=/${PWD##/}

# Extract gitignore file's line to exclude from ls command
excludedList=$(while IFS= read -r line; do echo "-I $line"; done < $file)

includeList=$(ls $excludedList -I ${0##*/})

# Zip the ls list
zip -q -r /$filename $includeList

echo "It's Done, ❤ Good Luck."
