OPTIONAL <exception> is the optional path of a file which indicate which file should not be indexed Each line of the file indicate the path relative to the current directory of a file which should not be indexed. For example, in your current directory you have the file not-to-index.txt. So you need to write in the file containing exceptions not-to.index.txt For prevented the file not-to-index.txt to be indexed
