Is it safe to just delete all the
rdiff-backup-data/increments/Mail.tar.gz* files?  I don't care that
this will leave some phantom trace of this file, as long as it doesn't
affect the rest of the backups..


Hi -- I recently did this with a .Trash folder that was getting backed up. I excluded the file in my include list and then manually deleted the increments files. The next time I ran rdiff-backup I got some errors about it, but then all seemed fine and with no errors on the next run.

(I've only been using rdiff-backup for a couple of months, so I'm not speaking from a lot of experience at this...)
