What xfer type are you using and has a full happened since the files 
were copied?  The tar and smb methods use only the file timestamps to 
determine what to take in incrementals, so if your file copy preserved 
old timestamps they will be skipped until the next full.  If you use 
rsync or rsyncd they should be picked up on the next run, incremental or 
full.
