Because /opt/backup/stage/other backs up the directory entry itself, but not its contents. /opt/backup/stage/other/* backs up the directory entry and contents but not subdirectories. /opt/backup/stage/other/** backs up the directory and all contents, including subdirectories. Do "man rsync" and check out the section "INCLUDE/EXCLUDE PATTERN RULES".
