tracker 2.0 does not provide tracker-gui any more. If there are search settings you need to be able to configure but can't, please file a bug with GNOME.

There is one other place to customize file search but I think this only affects the Files app search and not what is actually indexed.
1. Open the Files app.
2. Click the Files app menu in the top bar and select Preferences.
3. Switch to the Search and Preview tab.
4. Turn off "Full Text Search: Set as default"

Now when you do searches in the Files app, only file names will be searched by default. To do a one-time search for file content also, click the little drop down arrow next to the search box and choose Full Text.
