High Description
If you specify a an Exclude pattern that matches content in a Git repository, upon reindex of that repository the indexing process will fail.
First, you will get a message in the logs saying that the content isn't being watched:

However, Fisheye will try to index the changeset regardless and will fail, blocking indexing of the repository:
