You can set "search.useIgnoreFiles": false

You can set "search.useIgnoreFiles": false

the problem is "search.exclude" is not effect( "**/.git": true,).

"search.exclude": {
    "**/node_modules": true,
    "**/bower_components": true,
    "output": true,
    "**/CVS": true,
    "**/.git": true,
    "**/.svn": true
},

If you want to search in .git, you need to set that to false

ensure it enable, "search.exclude" will effect.
