 Note: `fd` also supports `.ignore` files that are used by other programs such as `rg` or `ag`.
 
+If you want `fd` to ignore these patterns globally, you can put them in `fd`'s global ignore file.
+This is usually located in `~/.config/fd/ignore` in macOS or Linux, and `%APPDATA%\fd\ignore` in
+Windows.

 If we want to run a command on all search results, we can pipe the output to `xargs`:
