I'm trying out Mend (the former WhiteSource) for a Python project and I'm hitting a snag. It keeps scanning directories like `__pycache__`, `.pytest_cache`, and `build/` during its SCA and vulnerability checks.
This seems to waste time and might clutter the results. I've looked through the documentation but I'm a bit lost on the exact configuration setting.
Is there a simple way to exclude these test, cache, and build folders from the scan? Is it done in the mend CLI arguments, or in the `whitesource.config` file? A real-world example from your setup would be super helpful.
