Hi Dan,
I use this schema:
rdiff-backup --exclude "/topsrcdir/.recycle" /topsrcdir/ backup
Try to use wildchars * if it works:
rdiff-backup --exclude "/topsrcdir/.recycle" --exclude
"/topsrcdir/*/.recycle" --exclude "/topsrcdir//*/*/.recycle" /topsrcdir/
backup

I am trying to exclude certain folders from my backup. What I would
like to remove is all folders with a period (for example, everyone has
a .recycle/ folder.
I try this:
rdiff-backup --exclude '**'/.recycle source backup
It runs through the backup while still copying this .recycle directory
Perhaps I am misunderstanding the documentation?
