Resync Backup and Excluding specific folders
So our office uses the Autodesk software Revit. When the software edits a file it creates a backup folder with the name ending in "_backup"
When I run my backup jobs I would like to be able to exclue all of the folders when useing the Rsync backup protocal.
My question is can I use wildcard caricters in the folder name like "*_backup" to make sure these are the only folders excluded?

You can use wildcards in the exclude file list. http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2011/01/rsync-exclude-files-and-folders/?utm_source=feedburner
