# this file notes down what things to ignore when you make backups, for example # with borg/vorta # # The assumption is that we want to keep userdata, not application data.

The reasoning is that you can probably install that anew # with little effort. # things in /home ~/.local/state ~/.local/share/Trash ~/.cache ~/.steam ~/Downloads ~/.cargo/registry ~/.local/share/flatpak ~/.local/share/nvim/mason ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy ~/.pyenv # keywords **trash** **Trash** **cache** **Cache** # part of dir tree **/tmp **/temp # programming stuff and compiled stuff */target **/.rustup # filetypes *.iso *.tmp # system stuff /var/cache /var/log /tmp
