Description
Is there a reason why `re.match`, which only matches If zero or more characters at the beginning of string match the regular expression pattern, is used instead of `re.search`, which looks at the entire string?
I have a case where I want to exclude all markdown files that have a certain folder name in its `src_path`, but can only get it to work when I change the below line in the plugin.
```python
for r in regexes:
if re.search(r, name):
return False
```
