When refreshing a backup job it depends on the settings of the backup job which files will be backed up, changed or deleted.
Include & Exclude pattern
For all types of backup jobs a file is skipped, if
| • | its absolute path or its filename (including the file extension) is excluded by any exclude pattern or |
| • | at least one include pattern is defined and neither the files absolute path nor the filename (including the file extension) is not matched by any of those. |
If the file is not skipped after those include/exclude considerations each type of backup job performs different checks for each file.
