[Enhancement]: Add "Include Patterns" #174

Open

Description

@KrzysztofKiser

Current Behavior

Currently, for directory sources, there is an option to exclude files/folders based on a pattern, but an option to include only selected folders/files is missing.

Proposed Improvement

Add a switch "Include Patters/Exclude Patters" so that the user can choose whether to include or exclude the patterns entered in the patterns field.

Motivation

There is currently no possibility to backup only a selected folder/folders, e.g. exclude all, except /folder1.
This functionality would allow such behavior.

Area

Backup / Restore

Additional Context

    Hey @KrzysztofKiser

    Thanks for this idea.

    I'm currently in the final stages of preparing for the v4 release, which includes a new UI, a new website, etc. As a result, I'm not yet able to implement this feature. However, I'll consider a possible solution and take it into account in the future. Thank you very much for your understanding.
