IDE sometimes permanently loop in refresh till restart

[Nightenom]

Occasionally vscode enters into permanent refresh loop because of file watcher for build/neoForm/neoFormJoined<version>/unpacked/config/inject/mcp/client/Start.java Reloading the window has ~50 % chance to stop it, always happens after clean import, during dev some actions may start the loop too (probably something what triggers NG to do neoform setup?)

I can not reproduce this in the current version, can you check?

mitigation in .vscode/settings.json:

"files.watcherExclude": {
    "**/build/neoForm/**": true,
}

issue: everything under build/neoform/<version>/patches gets notified in cycle of neoFormPatch task, example log entry:

2024-06-26 12:58:11.609 [trace] [File Watcher (parcel)]  >> normalized [CHANGED] p:\data\github\BlockUI\build\neoForm\1.20.4-20231207.154220\patches\server\net\minecraft\world\level\block\BaseEntityBlock.java.patch

Cannot replicate after latest ng changes, probably solved in #232, feel free to reopen if someone is still affected
