Description

Currently it is not possible to exclude paths/patterns from validation. Without this eg Conda recipe specs are reported as invalid because they are in fact Jinja templates of real YAML documents and the content indeed is not valid YAML.

Research direction

Start by tracing how validation is configured and how file paths reach the validator. Determine how path or pattern exclusions should be represented and applied, using the Conda Jinja-template example as the expected case. Done means matching paths are skipped while other YAML files continue to be validated.
