Description

Describe the feature you'd like to request

I'd like to have the ability to set ignore path for the indexer.

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe something similar to what's already proposed for fulltextesearch? files_exclude --value='[...]
Or dropping a .noindex file somewhere maybe?

Describe alternatives you've considered

I haven't found one, but am keen on knowing if there's already support for this.

Thanks!

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the indexer and the existing fulltextesearch files_exclude proposal, then determine how indexer exclusions are configured. Done means an agreed, documented way to exclude paths from indexing, with coverage for the selected behavior.
