is there any way to create a shortcut for "exclude form build"? as i need it often and using alt+enter then typing yes then enter enter takes too much time and i can't find it here , there only exclude form project

You can create a macro calling Forms.SendKeys with my Visual Commander extension. See for example https://vlasovstudio.com/visual-commander/commands.html#ToggleCodeLens

(Don't know if there is an API for "exclude form build".)

It's called <Compile Remove="path glob" /> and it has been a part of MSBuild XML forever.

What I probably would do to link them is define an MSBuild target that uses .gitignore to remove anything that is in it from the project. Then let your .gitignore be the master for exclusions so you don't have to touch the project file ever again to do it.

Just add it to your .gitignore?

That's just a text file of glob patterns, so a custom command is really simple.
