Yeah, I have found that with TAR, there needs to be SOME content in the
backup.
I would also suggest adding another set: (add the words around this; this is
only the idea)
CAMPUS-Other
exclude “./a-z]*”
# and by default, INCLUDE everything besides a-z
This will catch anything that starts with a capital letter, or a number. Even
if somebody adds
them later, and you weren’t planning on them. But again, make sure there
is initially something *in* the set. Perhaps a text file at the top level
“00info”
which describes the way you are splitting the backup “a-f”, ….
Mostly just to have something there, but it might also be useful to know.
