Feature Request
Enable excluding file from backup.
Plugin
capacitor-filesystem
Description
This is a feature that is a good practice for directories like DATA, for files that are redownloable. Only implementation for iOS. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/urlresourcevalues/isexcludedfrombackup
For Android, it can be made at project level, with something like android/app/src/main/res/xml/backup_rules.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<full-backup-content>
    <exclude domain="file" path="audio/"/>
</full-backup-content>And on AndroidManifest.xml:
<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:fullBackupContent="@xml/backup_rules"
    ...>
Not needed implementation for web.
Platform(s)
iOS
Preferred Solution
I opened a PR with my solution.
Not sure if it's interesting to add the info about Android.
