- db backups are getting too big
They don't grow any smaller by moving half the database from
/usr/local/postgres to /usr/local/homebrew.
The point is, you can do incremental backups easily if you store
attachments in files. If you store them inside the database a full dump
gets huge and can take a lot of time.
You can shrink the backups by deleting attachments (conditionally,
blah), or by not backing up the entire db.
Why would you not want to backup the entire db?
