Public bug reported: At least I would really appreciate (and I bet all developers out there as well), if deja-dup would allow to have glob-expressions or regular expressions for ignored-folders.
On a normal installation it is really a pain in the a** to sort out all those .cache .obj tmp/* build/* especially, since those will be generated dynamically during the day. There's absolutely no need to back those up, but the frontend now only allows for specific pathes to be entered on ignore list. Please add this feature.
