How to modify IgnoreList on Android phone?

Hi,
I created a "synced foler" on my PC. A ".sync\IgnoreList" file was automatically created. I edited it and wrote the file. I restarted Sync.

Then I shared this folder on my phone. On my phone a ".sync\IgnoreList" file was automatically created.
But:
1) this file is not the copy of the one on the PC, instead it's the default IgnoreList file
2) I can't edit the phone's IgnoreList because

    * when I open it with ES File manager / Text editor, when saving, I have "cannot write" (maybe it's a permission problem? this happens even if Sync is not running)

    * when I connect phone to PC with USB (MTP mode, as this is the new USB mode since Android 4), I cannot see ".sync\IgnoreList" : it's a hidden file. Thus it is not shown on Windows.

Question : how to edit ".sync\IgnoreList" on phone?
