Can i choose which files to exclude from scanning in the git-secrets-scan pipe?

I can not find any documentation regarding files/folders exclusion from git-secrets-scan pipe in bitbuckets pipelines

Hello @Abdelmassih Abdelmassih

Based on my experience, the git-secrets-scan pipe in Bitbucket Pipelines currently doesn’t seem to have explicit documentation or built-in options for excluding specific files or folders.

However, you can achieve this indirectly by modifying your pipeline configuration to exclude certain paths from being scanned. This could involve creating a .gitignore-like file or customizing the script that invokes the pipe to filter files.
