How to actually skip directories in golangci-lint?

[roshan-rubrik]

Golangci-lint doesn't give option to actually skip directories. The skip-dirs option is not skipping the directory, It just skips the reporting issues from that directory. Is there way to actually skip directories?
I am aware of this stackoverflow thread. This provides an option to actually skip files. I want to skip directories. Adding codeanalysis tag in each file is not a option for us.

In gometalinter, we had option to actually exclude directories. Why did similar option is not given in the golangci-lint?
