I want to prevent liquid from rendering all files in specified directory even if file begins with --- without any changes in these files (these files are for downloading). Maybe I can put some lines in _config.yml or create file like .liquidignore?
you can ignore folders / files in the config file (exclude) - is that what you want? or do you still want to move them into the _site folder just without liquid doing anything?
there is also keepfiles which may do something for you.

Copying files to _site directory and adding them to keep_files looks like good solution, but can I use wildcard with this option? I added
keep_files:
- pages/*/raw
to _config.yml and this is not working. Maybe I made something wrong or wildcards are not supported by this option?
did you try it with 2 **? like pages/**/raw
Iām not great at globbing but I think you need ** to do a directory? plus I think you need something on the end.
What is raw? a directory? or a file name? as you have it it almost looks like you want it to effect a file named raw in any subfolder of pages.
pages/raw/*.* would be any file in the raw directory.
What is raw? a directory? or a file name?
raw is directory.
Directory names are supported too. I added config:
keep_files:
- downloads
And it keeps all files in downloads directory.
pages/raw/*.*would be any file in the raw directory.
Any file containing . in its name (files can have name without extension).
It looks like wildcards/regular expressions are not supported in current jekyll version. I suggested this feature on github. (https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/issues/9523)
