Package: obnam
Version: 0.29-1
Severity: normal

Hello!

In a config file, I cannot use several occurrences of the 'exclude'
parameter.

For example, I would like to be able to do this in my config file :

--- obnam.cfg ---
# exclude some temp files
exclude = temp

# exclude other files
exclude = another_temp
-----------------

But doing this, --dump-config only shows the last exclude parameter
specified. A workaround is to give all the exclude patterns on the same
exlude line, but it makes the config file more difficult to document.

Furthermore, if an 'exclude' parameter is used in the command line, it
erases the exclude parameters given in a config file.

e.g.

$ obnam --config=obnam.cfg --exclude=perso --exclude=fichier backup 
~/Desktop/temp


regards,
Damien
