# files to include in the backup

# BIG FAT WARNING
# Symlinks are not dereferenced. Moreover, an include line whose path
# contains, at any level, a symlink to a directory, will only have the
# symlink backed-up, not the target directory's content. Yes, you have
# to dereference yourself the symlinks, or to use 'mount --bind'
# instead.
# EXAMPLE
# Let's say /home is a symlink to /mnt/crypt/home ; the following line
# will only backup a "/home" symlink ; neither /home/user nor
# /home/user/Mail will be backed-up :
#   include = /home/user/Mail
# A workaround is to 'mount --bind /mnt/crypt/home /home' ; another
# one is to write :
#   include = /mnt/crypt/home/user/Mail

# If vservers = yes in /etc/backupninja.conf then the following variables can
# be used:
# vsnames = all | <vserver1> <vserver2> ... (default = all)
# vsinclude = <path>
# Any path specified in vsinclude is added to the include list for each vserver
# listed in vsnames (or all if vsnames = all).
# E.g. vsinclude = /home will backup the /home partition in every vserver
# listed in vsnames. If you have vsnames = "foo bar baz", this vsinclude will
# add to the include list /vservers/foo/home, /vservers/bar/home and
# /vservers/baz/home.
# Vservers paths are derived from $VROOTDIR.
