+## Excluding Overrides Files
+
+Modrinth mrpack/zip files may include an `overrides` subdirectory that contains config files, world data, and extra mod files. All of those files will be extracted into the `/data` path of the container. If any of those files, such as incompatible mods, need to be excluded from extraction, then the `MODRINTH_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS` variable can be set with a comma or newline delimited list of ant-style paths ([see below](#ant-style-paths)) to exclude, relative to the overrides (or `/data`) directory.
+
+### Ant-style paths
+
+Ant-style paths can include the following globbing/wildcard symbols:
+
+| Symbol | Behavior                                                |
+|--------|---------------------------------------------------------|
+| `*`    | Matches zero, one, or many characters except a slash    |
+| `**`   | Matches zero, one, or many characters including slashes |
+| `?`    | Matches one character                                   |
+
+!!! example
+
+    The following compose `environment` entries show how to exclude Iris and Sodium mods from the overrides
+    
+    ```yaml
+      MODRINTH_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS: mods/NekosEnchantedBooks-*.jar,mods/citresewn-*.jar
+    ```
+    
+    or using newline delimiter, which improves maintainability
+    
+    ```yaml
+      MODRINTH_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS: |
+        mods/NekosEnchantedBooks-*.jar
+        mods/citresewn-*.jar
+    ```
