Global cursorignore

Hi Cursor Team,

Would it be possible to support a global .cursorignore and/or .cursorindexingignore, perhaps inheriting patterns from my global .gitignore?

I’m thinking of two cases where this would be useful:

  1. I sometimes open configuration files like .aws/credentials in my editor but don’t want them indexed or sent to Cursor.
  2. When starting new projects, it would be great not to manually set up .cursorignore and .cursorindexingignore each time.

Is this something you’re considering or might support something like this in the future?

+1

I think also its a good idea
