Hi, welcome to backuppc, and it is good to see you are prepared to
write patches as needed. However, n this case, the feature you are
looking for already exists:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = ['cle'];
    $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
       'cle' => ['/Documents', '/important'],      # these are for
'cle' share
    };

BTW, I usually prefer to exclude specific directories and backup
everything else, as you are less likely to forget to backup some
important directory.

Hope this helps

Regards,
Adam
