Hi all
Recently I have noticed that Win10-File-history not working
for me. Somehow it is missing large part of my directory-tree.
One guess is that tree is too deep. But that is another story.
I tried to use "tar --update" to have some rudimentary backup,
with some exclusions.
Apparently it worked fine. But later it is found that any
folder excluded by using "--exclude-tag-under=FILE" or
"--exclude-ignore-recursive=FILE" is excluded only first
time. Hence, failing my idea.

$ tar --version

Sure that it is tar bug. But if not I am open to
suggestions.
