Description Khurshid Alam 2017-05-12 14:59:37 UTC
Please ignore indexing following folders by default


Folders
1) vendor: Composer (php librarry manager) dumps libraries into vendor folder in the same directory where `composer update` is called. This is default behavior of composer. One way to think of the vendor directory is as a more generic form of "lib"

2) __pycache__: Contains python bytecodes. 

3) .pyc files

Reason:

When you work on a small web application which is ready to upload to openshift or any other paas, it is essential that you put all the libraries in your project folder and use a package manager that is supported by online Paas. My project folders are in ~/Documents and tracker should not waste it's time indexing these.
Comment 1 Sam Thursfield 2021-05-26 22:24:28 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new enhancement request ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/tracker/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
