Well, NoContents doesn't tell it to skip the file.  If you do want to
skip the file you can create some FileRules in the config.  Or if you
want to index only files with certain extensions then list them with
IndexOnly.

It will still add the file to the index if there's a NoContents rule.  I
don't recall exactly what gets added.  You can use -T debug options to
see what is added to the index.
