It would also be good to patch the man page to add a description of this option.

I was going to, but savannah was down. I haven't seen 1.1.x yet, but hopefully
it still uses selection functions and the same option processing code.

I have a small contribution to make in the form of a simple selection
function.

My company has found that we needed a way for users to say that
particular directories shouldn't get backed up. The attached patch adds the --exclude-if-present option. It has been tested with 1.0.4 and 1.0.5.

I documented it on the wiki at
http://wiki.rdiff-backup.org/wiki/index.php/ExcludeIfPresent .
