How to force ruff to process a directory called build?

I have a package in my python-project that's actually called build - is there a convenient way to make ruff process this specific package, without having to fully override exclude (which would require me to replicate the defaults)?

No, I don't think there's an alternative to overriding exclude but I'm not the exclude defaults are the problem here because the defaults only exclude _build but not build. Any chance that build is excluded in a gitignore file?

Thanks for your reply! The .gitignore file contains the pattern ./build/, which should only affect a build-directory at the repository root, right? In my case, the directory is not in root, but nested under a src folder, and the files in there are definitely managed by git. I'll play around a bit with manually overriding exclude.
