Exclude Folder? #82

Closed mac-linux-free closed 9 years ago

mac-linux-free commented 9 years ago

How could I exclude a folder from recursive deduping?

In my main folder there is a folder called .snapshots which I want to be excluded from the dedup process.

Thanks in advance.

sorry for this issue...it was not fully clear that the -x switch solves this for me.

Hi,

It is perhaps also possible to use 'find' and a pipe, as @clobrother suggests in issue #11, with development branch of Duperemove, to exclude specifik folders (and still dedupe over several subvolumes). I have not tested that yet, though.
