i meet the same question:
when i right click on a folder and click on "tag files" and select "create auto-tagging rule"
then i put a new folder include some files to the folder
the soft will tag containing folder, and all its files
but i only want to tag the folder not these files

so can you add a parameter under "auto-tagging rule"like this ?
?only tagging the folder when the folder not empty?

thanks!
