Question Add something like .backupexclude to folder to exclude from Plesk Backup?

FreeUserName

New Pleskian
I'm aware of the feature to exclude certain directories from the Plesk Backup process. When you set a global backup task and in all your domains there is e.g. a cache folder you like to always exclude you have to manually add the path in the backup settings when you add a new domain e.g.:

/domain1.ext/files/cache/
/domainN.ext/files/cache/

or as explained here:

Resolved - Exclude a folder from backup?

*/files/cache/*

the last options probably will work in my situation but would it be possible to control this from the filesystem with something like .backupexclude 'file' in the directory? Similar to e.g. .gitkeep?
