[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup 0/7] pull/sync group filter

[Dietmar Maurer]

As discussed offline, we want to make the filter more flexible, e.g.:

-group vm/100 # this is what we have now

-group regex:vm/.* # a regex

-group type:ct #all containers

-exclude-groups true # exclude specified groups instead of include

...
