Not working...its still trying to archive the stats folder. And I did a
search online and they came up with a view syntax variations which also
failed. So I have no idea.
tar czvf webroot.tar.gz --exclude 'webroot/stats/' webroot
tar czvf webroot.tar.gz --exclude=webroot/stats/ webroot
tar czvf webroot.tar.gz --exclude='webroot/stats/' webroot
Anyone ideas?
