[Duplicity-talk] using the 'find' command to exclude files over a certain file size

[Jason Martin]

Hello, I hope someone could help me. I am trying to exclude files over a certain size in a backup as they are mostly files that don't require backing up.

I'm using the command:

~:$  duplicity $(find /home/jason -size +100M -printf " --exclude '**%f'") /home/jason/ file:///tmp/test

which gives....

Command line error: Expected 2 args, got 6

Enter 'duplicity --help' for help screen.

However,  if I copy/paste the output of $(find /home/jason -size +100M -printf " --exclude '**%f'") into the command everything works as expected...??

Any ideas???

Jason
