Hello,
new to Duplicacy. Trying to figure out include and excludes.
I am using Duplicacy on MacOS and have setup a backup for the entire harddisk but want to exclude certain partitions, directories and also some patters. I read https://forum.duplicacy.com/t/filters-include-exclude-patterns/1089, just still not fully clear to me.
Can I mix regular expressions and wildcards in one exclude file?
My current exclude file looks something like this:
-SHARED/*
-.timemachine/*
-.DocumentRevisions-V100
-.MobileBackups
-.MobileBackups.trash
-.Spotlight-V100
-.TemporaryItems
-.Trash
-.Trashes
-.dbfseventsd
-.dropbox
-.dropbox.cache
-.fseventsd
-.hotfiles.btree
-.vol
-Backups.backupdb
-Cache
-Caches
-/Library/Metadata/CoreSpotlight
-DerivedData
-node_modules
-Logs
-/iTunes/iTunes Media/Downloads
-/iTunes/iTunes Media/Podcasts
-/iTunes/Album Artwork
-/iTunes/Previous iTunes Libraries
-/Library/Application Support/CrashReporter
-/.DS_Store
-/.VolumeIcon.icns
-/.fseventsd
-/.vol
-*/.file
I am however not sure if I would not have to do e:\ for all the
-*/abc
Basically I want to exclude the SHARED Partition completely and then certain things like .DS_Store files, Trashes, iTunes, TimeMachine Things.
For example for the SHARED partition should it be
-SHARED/*
or
-/Volumes/SHARED
or something
-/Volumes/SHARED/*
Lastly is there an option to exclude directories if for example a hidden
.nobackup
File is present.
Thank you so much for your help.
