rsync --include is not working as expected












0















I am trying to backup jenkins home directory (/home/ubuntu/.jenkins/) using rsync to the target directory /opt/jenbkup/. Since the directory traversal seems not working as expected, I have gone with single directory in the filter:



rsync -avr --include="jobs/*/config.xml" --exclude="*" /home/saga/.jenkins /opt/jenbkup


But nothing is copied. I also tried with exact file path in the include and did not work. 



rsync -avr --include="jobs/job1/config.xml" --exclude="*" /home/saga/.jenkins /opt/jenbkup


File is not copied to destination. I don't understand whats wrong here. Some one please assist.

          I assume, that you would only backup the config.xml files in your JENKINS_HOME, then this should work:



          rsync -av --include="*/" --include="config.xml" --exclude="*" 
          
      --delete --prune-empty-dirs /home/saga/.jenkins/ /opt/jenbkup/


          Short explaination of the used options:





          • --include="*/" traverse all directories


          • --include="config.xml" include only files named "config.xml"


          • --exclude="*" exlude everything


          • --delete delete non-existing files in the backup


          • --prune-empty-dirs delete empty directories from the backup
