OneDrive selective sync top level files

Is there a way to setup selective OneDrive sync to include files at the root of my OneDrive? My sync_list file looks like this (but root files are not copied down):

FolderA
FolderB
FolderC

I've tried an additional entree for *, *.*, and .* but none work.

I'm using OneDrive (apt install onedrive) v1.0.1 on Ubuntu 18.04.3.

From the looks of it, the onedrive apt package seems wildly out of date. Last update from September of 2017.

I've personally been using this one by abraunegg.

It's been working pretty well and lets you configure the folders and files not to be loaded in the ~/.config/onedrive/config-File.

By default it will load all the files in your onedrive folder.
