I'm backing up using Duplicity, great tool. I'm unable to include files in the backup that are within a directory that is a symlink.

Using the following:

duplicity <dup args> --include /var/www/**/current --exclude '**'

duplicity will only backup the symlink I've tried:

duplicity <dup args> --include /var/www/**/current/* --exclude '**'
# and
duplicity <dup args> --include /var/www/**/current/** --exclude '**'

Not even then symlink is backed up.

the "current" directory links to directory like: /var/www/host.com/de9f2c7fd25e1b3afad3e85a0bd17d9b100db4b3

The files contains a few static html & css files. I want those files to be backed up, regardless of which sha'd directory "current" points to.

Any help appreciated.
