Like other configuration params, the pattern is set via an environment variable (`exclude_from_index`) and uses glob syntax : e.g. exclude_from_index=**.svg,**.gitmodules,**.gitattribute,.datalad**}

Feature proposal: Add an optional file pattern to prevent indexing certain files, by checking their path.
It can solve #1, and similar situation in a generic way: It allows preventing to pollute the blob index with some technical text file (such as DataLad internal files) that have no added values for data text search.
Usage: like other configuration parameters, the pattern is set via an environment variable (
exclude_from_index), and it uses glob syntax.e.g. to prevent indexing SVGs and DataLad's internal files set the variable to :
exclude_from_index={**.svg,**.gitattributes,.datalad**}
