-# A few notes about includes and excludes:
-# 1. include, exclude and vsinclude statements support globbing with '*'
-# 2. Symlinks are not dereferenced. Moreover, an include line whose path
-# contains, at any level, a symlink to a directory, will only have the
-# symlink backed-up, not the target directory's content. Yes, you have to
-# dereference yourself the symlinks, or to use 'mount --bind' instead.
-# Example: let's say /home is a symlink to /mnt/crypt/home ; the following
-# line will only backup a "/home" symlink ; neither /home/user nor
-# /home/user/Mail will be backed-up :
-# include = /home/user/Mail
-# A workaround is to 'mount --bind /mnt/crypt/home /home' ; another one is to
-# write :
-# include = /mnt/crypt/home/user/Mail
-# 3. All the excludes come after all the includes. The order is not otherwise
