There is no includeInFolderSearch setting because it uses the 
“matching” glob shown in the find window as what to include.

So for your project, you would need to edit this field, to only include 
the folders you’re interested in searching. This setting will be 
remembered “per project” (folder).

In theory you can also negate an exclude pattern to make it instead work 
as an include pattern, for example if you only want to search items in 
‘src’ then you can set the excludeInFolderSearch to 
‘!src{/**,}’. The brace notation here is to both (not) exclude 
‘src’ (the folder) and any item below the folder (‘src/**’).
