I thought now I’d understand its way of thinking but I was proven wrong, because it does nothing. I thought this is the right way of thinking:
Duplicacy goes through all files and folders. I have to think from each individual file/folder perspective. Say “C:\folder1\Iamafile.txt”. Now it looks into filter line 1. Say “+blah”. It does not match. Next filter line. “-*”. Match. File is excluded, no further processing. Next file.
Wrong way of thinking?
So now my situation is this:
M:\
M:\Folder1\
M:\Folder2\
M:\FolderFoo\
I want to include anything. The only thing I want to exclude is M:\FolderFoo. I added via the web-ui:
-FolderFoo/
+*
Does nothing. I am disappointed. My whole thinking was wrong. Also I am too stupid to add line breaks here in code tags.
