Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have automated BTRFS snapshots set up.
This means that for every day I have a "copy" of my directory structure inside of a folder like .snapshots/${date} that I can go back to in case I delete or lose something important. This however causes the index to grow to obscene amounts because it's simply a lot of references of files that already exist and we don't need those.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like to simply have a regex which can tell FileRise which directories to ignore or to not index.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I've tried looking through the Wiki or Issues but I haven't been able to find anything relevant in terms of indexing.

Additional context
Having snapshots is really useful because I don't have to replicate data on my drives and CoW makes sure any changes to the underlying filesystem takes as physicial least space as possible while providing a quick "backup" in case I do make a mistake.
