Oh, I trust SVN. The backup is of my complete D: drive to the C: drive
which includes personal files, pictures, documents etc as well as all my
work files (which just happen to be stored in SVN).

I'm not sure that the folder exclude functionality in the cache setup is
working though, as I'm getting icons in those folders. Do I have to
reboot to get it working? Do I use \ or / ? Do you have a sample of
usage?
