There was a problem hiding this comment.
I would suggest to don't exclude ~/.m2, but ~/.m2/repository.
settings.xml is inside ~/.m2 and is a very important file (can keep passwords and secrets)

Add fixed directory exclusions for common tool caches (~/.cache, ~/.gradle/caches, ~/.m2/repository, ~/.npm/_cacache, ~/.nuget/packages, ~/.kube/cache) that are always safe to exclude without sentinel files. Inspired by stevegrunwell#69, props @pkuczynski.

* docs(readme): clarify that asimov only affects Time Machine, not Spotlight Add a note explaining that asimov does not hide directories from Spotlight indexing, with guidance on how to configure Spotlight privacy settings separately. Addresses stevegrunwell#90. * feat(sentinels): add .NET project build directory exclusions Exclude bin/ and obj/ directories when *.csproj (C#) or *.fsproj (F#) project files are present, using glob sentinel patterns. Inspired by stevegrunwell#87, props @guigomesa. * feat: skip already-excluded directories for faster subsequent runs Use Spotlight metadata (mdfind) to identify directories already excluded from Time Machine and skip them during the find traversal. Also fixes a comment typo and removes duplicate Gradle sentinel entries. Inspired by stevegrunwell#97, props @VladRassokhin. * feat: exclude well-known global cache directories Add fixed directory exclusions for common tool caches (~/.cache, ~/.gradle/caches, ~/.m2/repository, ~/.npm/_cacache, ~/.nuget/packages, ~/.kube/cache) that are always safe to exclude without sentinel files. Inspired by stevegrunwell#69, props @pkuczynski.

Those developer-related directories seem to be pretty common...
