I'm trying to find out why some files are backup up every night despite
not having changed.
Following is the report from the last three days.

If I interpret the report correctly, some files (5GB+) have been backed
up on both days.
Looking at the index for both backups, I found and picked some of the
files/directories (randomly)

---------------------
My question is, why are they being backed up, or is my assumption that
the index only contains files that were backup up incorrect?
Thanks
