1) While examining the contents of a backup I discover it's wasting a
lot of time backing up
'Library/Caches/'
so I add that to the exclude list. I then "stop/dequeue backup" from the
GUI in hopes it will read and obey the new exclude list.
I then restarted the backup from the GUI and I chose "Start Incremental
backup" because I was afraid that "start full backup" would be a bad
choice. Apparently it continued with the full backup that was underway,
which was what I was hoping for.
2) What about the new exclude? Will it exclude the new items from this
moment forward? It's hard to tell from the Xfer log since rsync seems to
list every file it sees, even the items it's going to exclude. That's
one of the most disconcerting features of rsync, it leaves you guessing.
Your thoughts, please.
Bob
