I guess that would not be to hard for any person willing to read the manual page of find. This manual page is very helpful in using this particular problem as an example:
To ignore a whole directory tree, use -prune rather
than checking every file in the tree. For example, to skip the
directory 'src/emacs' and all files and directories under it,
and print the names of the other files found, do something like
this:
find . -path './src/emacs' -prune -o -print
There is lots to say about documentation on Linux, but the find manual page is not a good example.
