Silver Searcher - How to ignore a file

Add just multiple --ignore, at least this works for me:

ag -Qt --ignore ".*tags" --ignore asdf

If you don't put quotes it's interpreted as directory if you put quotes as PATTERN

After some research, it seems that it is a known issue documented here. Where if you do an --all-text (-t) search it'll override --ignore since it's searching for all texts. This issue is present for --unrestricted too.

Put the list of files to exclude in .agignore.

Note: as @DenilsonSáMaia mentioned, .agignore will be deprecated in favor of .ignore geoff.greer.fm/2016/09/26/ignore
