I couldn't succeed to do what I wanted. If in the "BackupFilesOnly" I just define the dot files I want to keep (and in the "BackupFilesExclude", all the dot files), then ONLY the dot files from "BackupFilesOnly" are saved, no other regular file. For the moment, I exclude some dot files that are too big and that I don't want to backup.
