Description
An exclude option for the "flush" django-admin command could be useful in certain cases where we have tables that have been filled with data migrations.
Since flush just deletes the data but leaves the migrations untouched, having an exclude option where a user could provide a list of table names to be excluded can come in handy.
Example: Country table that has been filled with data using a data migration. Every time we run flush we might want to exclude this table from flushing.

Hi Dimitar, I don't use often flush myself but I think this makes sense
However, before we proceed here, you need to propose and discuss the idea with the community. To do that, please consider starting a new conversation on the Django Forum, where you'll reach a broader audience and receive additional feedback.
I'll close the ticket for now, but if the community agrees with the proposal, please return to this ticket and reference the forum discussion so we can re-open it. For more information, please refer to the documented guidelines for requesting features.
Thank you
