I have been using BackupPC since early v3.0 days. Switched to v4 a few years ago.

I have always "exclude" directories to NOT backup. It has been my understanding that BackupPC users were to either "include" or "exclude" NOT both?

The "/" is on /dev/md1 and "/home" is on /dev/md2. Both on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04LTS) mdadm arrays.

Am I wrong? Doesn't "include" override any "exclude" settings?

No, that is the default setting in BPC. So if your /home is on a separate partition you either need to remove that setting, or add the /home partition as a backup Target in addition to /.
Whichever is your best option is up to you.

Thanks, Michael.

Sorry, not clear if I am to run "rsync --one-file-system" as root from
command line?

The "--one-file-system" is listed in 'RsyncArgs'?
