+## AndroidPackagingOptionsExclude
+
+A set of file glob compatible items which will allow for items to be
+excluded from the final package. The default values are as follows
+
+```
+<ItemGroup>
+	<AndroidPackagingOptionsExclude Include="DebugProbesKt.bin" />
+	<AndroidPackagingOptionsExclude Include="$([MSBuild]::Escape('*.kotlin_*')" />
+</ItemGroup>
+```
+Items can use file blob characters for wildcards such as `*` and `?`.
+However these Items MUST use URL encoding or '$([MSBuild]::Escape(''))'.
+This is so MSBuild does not try to interpret them as actual file wildcards.
+
+NOTE: `*`, `?` and `.` will be replaced in the `BuildApk` task with the
+appropriate RegEx expressions.
+
+Added in Xamarin.Android 13.0.
