Hello,

i have a question regarding the interaction between two parameters
(--go-into and --prune):
My folder structure is like this:
/pool/movie
/pool/series
/pool/misc
...

Each of these second level folders (movie, series, misc, ...) contains
a big amount of sub-folders too.

To only save “movie“ i am using dar with --fs-root „/pool“ and
--go-into “movie“ which works fine. Because the folder „movie“ is
pretty big i want for example to only include all dirs beginning with
“A*“. Since --go-into dont support wildcard i thought i can use
--prune “[B-Zb-z]*“ to exclude all other folders (inside of “movie“).
Sadly its not working as excepted and also dirs beginning with A* will
be saved by dar. If i am not using --go-into and directly use
--fs-root “/pool/movie“ with --prune “[B-Zb-z]*“ it works like
excepted. So am i doing something wrong or is dar confused with
--go-into and --prune.

Thanks
