Description
### Feature Description
Provide an option to automatically exclude files from the build during creation.
### Problem and Motivation
Today, standalone T‑SQL statement .sql files are treated as part of the build unless they are correctly referenced through pre‑ or post‑deployment scripts. This causes:
- Unexpected build errors when a script is accidentally included
- Confusion for users adding ad‑hoc, debugging, or operational scripts
- Extra manual steps to mark or reference files correctly
