Download all files except a specific folder from FTP server using WinSCP .NET assembly

So far this is the code I'm using to get the All items inside of a folder but inside of this folder, has a sub folder i don't want to include in downloading, is there a way to not include that folder ?

session.GetFiles("/*.*", @"D:\Download\", false, transferOptions);

TransferOptions transferOptions = new TransferOptions();
transferOptions.TransferMode = TransferMode.Binary;

TransferOperationResult transferResult;
transferResult =
    session.GetFiles("/*.*", @"D:\Download\", false, transferOptions);

This is the whole code I'm using to download all files

SessionOptions sessionOptions = new SessionOptions
{
    Protocol = Protocol.Ftp,
    HostName = "sample",
    UserName = "sample",
    Password = "sample",
};

using (Session session = new Session())
{
    // Connect
    session.Open(sessionOptions);

    // Your code
    TransferOptions transferOptions = new TransferOptions();
    transferOptions.TransferMode = TransferMode.Binary;

    TransferOperationResult transferResult;
    transferResult =
        session.GetFiles("/*.*", @"D:\Download\", false, transferOptions);


    // Print results
    foreach (TransferEventArgs transfer in transferResult.Transfers)
    {
        listBox1.Items.Add("Files Downloaded : "+ transfer.FileName);
    }
}

EDIT : This is what I tried in FileMask

TransferOptions transferOptions = new TransferOptions();
transferOptions.FileMask = "/*.*|/.git";


TransferOperationResult transferResult;
transferResult =
    session.GetFiles("/*.*", @"D:\Download\", false, transferOptions);

Use TransferOptions.FileMask

i.e.

TransferOptions transferOptions = new TransferOptions();
transferOptions.FileMask = "*.* | .git/";
...
...
transferResult = session.GetFiles("/someremotefolder/*.*", @"D:\Download\", false, transferOptions);

NOTE: - The pipe | separator combines include and exclude masks.
