.cursorindexingignore or .cursorindexignore

[Jeremiah-England]

The documentation mentions both .cursorindexignore and .cursorindexingignore. I would like clarification on which one is correct.

• .cursorindexignore reference
• .cursorindexingignore reference

Hey, I think you meant .cursorignore and .cursorindexingignore (note the “ing”)?
The .cursorindexignore version won’t work since it’s not the correct filename.

The difference: .cursorignore works like .gitignore, while .cursorindexingignore simply excludes files from indexing.

Ctrl + F for ‘cursorindexignore’ on the documentation page and you will get a hit. Should probably update that reference to say ‘cursorindexingignore`.

Thanks for the clarification!

Ah, thank you for pointing that out, we’ll fix it.
