".*" as a Blacklist entry

Asked by Thomas

Hello,
Am I able to use ".*" as a Blacklist entry? I will hope. And if it isn't true, I will hope, it will become true.
Excuse me, I'm not so good in english and excuse me becaus I know it's not a bug.

Hello! Sorry for late response. You can't use regular expressions as includes or excludes.

But if your goal is to avoid backing up your hidden "dot directories", the best advice I have is to add all your non-dot-directories to the includes list and drop the default Home include.
