The problem with the above is that "File =" line must match the whole path.
Instead of using an Exclude clause, you need to put an Options clause at the
start of the Include clause containing something like

wilddir = "*/.snapshot"
exclude = yes

There are examples of this in the FileSet Examples section manual.
