I am running backups using the rsync transport method.  The docs on
BackupFilesOnly indicate if this is used at all, then only the files
listed there are backed up.  To me this implies that excludes are then
ignored.  The docs on BackupFilesExclude warn that one can only
specify BackupFilesOnly and BackupFilesExclude once for smb shares,
which seems to contradict this.

I am trying to perform something like the following:
exclude /home
include /home/user/data

Is this possible without resorting to a custom rsync command line?  Am
I missing something here where includes and excludes are applied in a
certain order?

Thanks.
