Hi,

Version: 1.2.8

When using exclude (or include) glob filelists, one either needs to
use **/ to match the source base directory, or hardcode it into the
exclude file.

The former is too inspecific: **/foo would match basedir/foo, but
also basedir/some/other/dir/with/foo.

The latter is a pain if one wants to reuse the same exclude file
with multiple backup invocations.

It would be good if there was a special token, e.g. %BASEDIR%, which
rdiff-backup would replace by the source.
