ignoreDifference not works with app in app pattern

Checklist:

• I've searched in the docs and FAQ for my answer: https://bit.ly/argocd-faq.
• I've included steps to reproduce the bug.
• I've pasted the output of argocd version.

Describe the bug

Trying to ignore the TargetRevision field if the Application has a label ignoreTargetRevision: "true".
But from the Argocd UI, it always catches the diff.

To Reproduce

From the parent application

...
spec:
  ignoreDifferences:
  - group: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
    jqPathExpressions:
    - . | select(.metadata.labels.ignoreTargetRevision == "true") | .spec.source.targetRevision
    kind: Application
  source:
    syncOptions:
    - FailOnSharedResource=false
    - CreateNamespace=true
    - PrunePropagationPolicy=foreground
    - RespectIgnoreDifferences=true
...

And the child

...
apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
  labels:
    ignoreTargetRevision: "true"
...

Make it sure that if the child app has proper states.

$ cat child.yaml | yaml2json | jq ' . | select(.metadata.labels.ignoreTargetRevision == "true").spec.source.targetRevision'
"CPLAT-3112"

Expected behavior

The diff from targetRevision should be ignored from the parent application.

Are you expecting that if the app-of-apps has ignoreDifferences set, that it should be reflected in all child applications?

@blakepettersson No, what I'm trying is ignore the tagetRevision only if the application has specific label
