By default, exclude ~/.var/app/*/cache/

Open Pointedstick opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Flatpak apps store their cache files in /home/nate/.var/app/[rdns-style app id]/cache/ rather than in ~/.cache. If it's possible to do a regex match, Kup should exclude by default /home/nate/.var/app/*/cache/.

I have some ideas for the future, offering two views of the folder selection. One view would be the current simple folder tree. The other would be a list of include or exclude rules. Each rule could have a description/comment field (which I think could help issue #62 by explaining to the user that application settings will get saved when saving the home folder). That UI could also allow pattern based rules. For now there is no such thing.

Just a small note that latest master now supports adding your own exclude patterns. So still nothing by default, just a first step done in that at least users can add rules like this themselves.
