The directory you give is a "starting" directory. amdump will backup everything under that directory unless it could cross a mount point (file system) or if something is excluded.
So, assuming you have a DLE for ".../2019" and that your "another" directory is the only problem, add a directive to the DLE to exclude another. If you don't have a DLE for 2019, PERHAPS the -o option to amdump can be used to add an exclude directive. I don't know if it can or cannot.
