Important: Repository disk space is **not** freed until you run ``borg compact``.
``--exclude``, ``--exclude-from``, ``--exclude-if-present``, ``--keep-exclude-tags``, and PATH
have the exact same semantics as in "borg create". If PATHs are specified the
resulting archive will only contain files from these PATHs.
``--exclude``, ``--exclude-from``, ``--exclude-if-present``, ``--keep-exclude-tags``
and PATH have the exact same semantics as in "borg create", but they only check
for files in the archives and not in the local file system. If PATHs are specified,
the resulting archives will only contain files from these PATHs.
Note that all paths in an archive are relative, therefore absolute patterns/paths
will *not* match (``--exclude``, ``--exclude-from``, PATHs).
