Comment (by anonymous):

 Replying to [comment:3 rhaas]:
 > Filter.rules does not work right now since it currently (for whatever
 reason) only excludes _darcs and .hg (ie. not .git or .svn or CVS or even
 backup files [*~ or *#] it seems). I don't know the philosophy behind
 filter.rules and whether or not it would be a good source for the excluded
 pattern for the test suites. I would suspect not, since at least I for
 myself tend to to add the testsuites themselves to the excluded files
 since I don't want to copy them eg. to kraken all the time where I
 constantly run into the file number quota.

 Are you sure it doesn't work?  The filter.rules file includes "-C" which
 is supposed to exclude most version control files (see the rsync man page
 for more details), including CVS, .svn and .git and also excludes common
 backup files. The _darcs and .hg excludes are there explicitly because
 they are typically not included in the "-C" rules. The "-C" filter rule is
 not supported by rsync versions before 3.0, which is why there is a
 filter.prersync3.rules and in that case, we need to manually specify what
 to exclude.
