using a standard rsync command line, with this as the --exclude-from file:
+ /*.pst - *.* While this does include only files with a .pst extension, it also includes files without an extension. This means about 5000 files instead of just a handful. Using the --prune-empty-dirs gets rid of the empty directories, but not the files with no extensions. I've tried: + /*.pst - *.* - * and: + /*.pst - *.* - /* and: + /*.pst - *.* - *. but those cause no files to be copied at all, i assume because it's forcing it to exclude all directories. So is there a way to tell rsync to ignore files with no extensions?
