Another issue is as follows:  if I have known that the `foo/file' is 
located under some sub-directories  under a folder named `bar' in in the 
module's directory, in this case, I want to save the time for only 
searching into all of the sub-directories of rsync.example.net::module/
bar/.  Then what's revision should be done on the --include='*/' to adapt 
for this case?
