In Mountain Lion, where is the exclude list for Time Machine stored? [duplicate]

I want to know if the list of Time Machine excluded files (pictured below) can be found in a file somewhere.

I know about the question On Lion, what files are excluded by rule from a Time Machine backup? which has a lot of good information about StdExclusions.plist, mdfind and tmutil – but not the answer for this question.

One answer also talks about .exclusions.plist, which is almost the answer to this question. But there's a catch, I haven't done a backup yet, so I can't read the .exclusions.plist file from the Time Machine backup volume.

I'm doing cd / ; sudo find . -iname "*exclusions*" now, keeping my fingers crossed.

Solution 1:

The Mountain Lion settings are identical to the Lion settings as described here:

• Where does Time Machine store its settings?

The answer is /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
