   5 NAME
   6        packingrules - packing rules file for cachefs and filesync
   7 
   8 SYNOPSIS
   9        $HOME/.packingrules
  10 
  11 
  12 DESCRIPTION
  13        $HOME/.packingrules is a packing rules file for filesync and
  14        cachefspack. $HOME/.packingrules contains a list of directories and
  15        files that are to be packed and synchronized.  It also contains a list
  16        of directories and files that  are to be specifically excluded from
  17        packing and synchronization. See  filesync(1) and  cachefspack(1M).
  18 
  19 
  20        The $HOME/.packingrules file is automatically created if users invoke
  21        filesync with filename arguments. By using filesync options, users can
  22        augment the packing rules in $HOME/.packingrules.
  23 
  24 
  25        Many users choose to manually create the packing rules file and edit it
  26        by hand. Users can edit $HOME/.packingrules (using any editor) to
  27        permanently change the $HOME/.packingrules file, or to gain access to
  28        more powerful options that are not available from the command line
  29        (such as IGNORE commands). It is much easier to enter complex wildcard
  30        expressions by editing the $HOME/.packingrules file.
  31 
  32 
  33        Blank lines and lines that begin with a pound sign  (`#') are ignored.
  34 
  35 
  36        Any line can be continued by placing a backslash  (`\') immediately
  37        before the  NEWLINE.
