exclude everything and include directories

[Don Shesnicky]

Mindsets and assumptions are funny things.  Until the light bulb went
off while reading the man page, I assumed that with a module such as:

[CADENCE]
path = /tools/cadence

that you would have to use excludes and includes to further modify
what was rsync'ed. I didn't think something like

host::CADENCE/spr50

could be used to just pull subdirectories.

Thanks for the replies.
