Request Overview
cmake.exclude in CMake Tools (v1.22.20) only accepts absolute paths.
Variable paths such as ${workspaceFolder} / ${workspaceFolder:Name} and relative paths are not resolved, so excluded folders are still treated as CMake projects.
This prevents using cmake.exclude in shared or portable workspaces.
Request:
Add support for ${workspaceFolder} and relative paths in cmake.exclude.
Reference: PR #4440.
