Ah, good! What does “file” do in your include line?
exactly
include file ...
means "read include regex(es) from that file
you want
include "./[a-g]*"
and not "include file"
see manpage
I might have been to quick to reply, sorry.
manpage says:
exclude [ list | file ][[optional][append][ string ]+]
Default: file. Exclude is the opposite of include and specifies files
that will be excluded from the backup. The format of the exclude
expressions depends on the application, and some applications do not
support excluding files at all.
...
although I always skip that default "file" option (and recommend to test
that)
