I understand how `exclude` works, but is there an actual difference between using `include` and simply listing all the desired values of a given condition/trigger in Drone? For example:

```auto
trigger:
  branch:
  - master
  - feature/*

```

vs

```auto
trigger:
  branch:
    include:
    - master
    - feature/*

```
