.SH SYNOPSIS

\fBrestic backup [flags] FILE/DIR [FILE/DIR] ...\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP

given as the arguments.

\fB\-e\fP, \fB\-\-exclude\fP=[]
exclude a \fB\fCpattern\fR (can be specified multiple times)
Add option to exclude directories with a tagfile The option is named --exclude-if-present and accepts a parameter filename[:content]. Directories are excluded and their contents is not backed up if they contain a file with the specified name and, optionally, that starts with the specified content. The tagfile itself is never excluded. There is also a shortcut --exclude-caches that works in the same way as the likewise-named option of tar(1): Directories are recognized as cache if they contain a file named "CACHEDIR.TAG. Closes #317.
