rsync: Include and Exclude (sub)Directories
Assuming the following structure, that needs to be rsync'ed:
/Data
/subDir1
A.html
/subDir1a
AA.html
/subDir2
B.html
1.txt
2.txt
2.txt~
rsync -aAHSXrv --include-from=$InExCL $Source $Destination
Now I want to IN- and EXclude stuff in the InExCl.list using + and -: This works fine, files 2.txt and 2.txt~ show up in the backup, 1.txt does not:
+ 2.*
- *.txt
For the sub-directories I tried it similar (first the plus, the the minus) in order to EXclude subDir1 but to include subDir1a with AA.html and subDir2 with B.txt:
+ subDir1a/*
- subDir1/*
The result: subDir2 is fine, subDi1 shows up empty and subDir1a is not even mentioned.
Anybody to advice me, how this can be done right? Thank you.
