Hi, take a look at

   Items to Note
     Bacula's Differential and Incremental normal backups are based on  
time stamps. Consequently, if you move files into an
     existing directory or move a whole directory into the backup  
fileset after a Full backup, those files will probably not be
     backed up by an Incremental save because they will have old  
dates. This problem is corrected by using Accurate mode backups or
     by explicitly updating the date/time stamp on all moved files.
