Re: [Duplicity-talk] Auto ignores archive dir?

[Chris Poole]

Just one more thing then. I'm not sure why this isn't working, perhaps you do?

    DRIVENAME='offsite1'
    INCLUDES=''
    EXCLUDES="--exclude ~/.cache --exclude ~/Library/Caches --exclude
~/Dropbox --exclude ~/test --exclude ~/src --exclude ~/Downloads
--exclude ~/Public --exclude ~/Sites --exclude '**/.DS_Store'"

    duplicity $INCLUDES $EXCLUDES ~/ "file:///Volumes/$DRIVENAME/backup/"

I get the message:

    Fatal Error: The file specification
        ~/.cache
    cannot match any files in the base directory
        /Users/Chris

Now, I can use the glob **, to give **/.cache in the EXCLUDES
variable, but then won't this match any .cache directory, regardless
of depth? (I just want to match the ~/.cache directory explicitly).

Thanks.
