Re: [bitfolk] .bitfolk-rsync-filter - what filter do I need

I'm stuck on this, I'm trying not to backup what really isn't needed is some rails apps I'm doing. Basically Bitfolk does backups of (amongst other things) my /var directory (I already have a .bitfolk-rsync-filter to ensure that some stuff in /var isn't backed up). In side /var/www/rails-apps I have a rails app (with more to be added), since the git repositotires the code comes from are backed up elsewhere I don't want to backup each app's .git folder or any .git* files. I also don;t want to backup the log or tmp directories for each app. I have a /var/www/.bitfolk-rsync-filter file with the following contents: - .* - .*/ - rails-apps/*/tmp/ - rails-apps/*/log/ - rails-apps/**/.git* - rails-apps/*/.git/ I have also tried this contents: - .* - .*/ - /var/www/rails-apps/*/tmp/ - /var/www/rails-apps/*/log/ - /var/www/rails-apps/**/.git* - /var/www/rails-apps/*/.git/ However the following files (which I don't want backed up) are being backed up: /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/.git (directory) /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/.gitignore /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/vendor/plugins/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/vendor/assets/stylesheets/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/lib/tasks/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/lib/assets/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/test/integration/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/test/functional/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/test/unit/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/test/fixtures/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/.gitignore /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/app/models/.gitkeep /var/www/rails-apps/osmx.staging/app/mailers/.gitkeep What have I got wrong (so far neither the man page or Google have helped me)? -- Robert Gauld http://www.robertgauld.co.uk
