    all my back ups are what they should be

    Are you sure? While the cloud backups may not affect you the exclusions might, afaict no one even knows what exactly is excluded.

    From the link:

    This annoyed me. Firstly I needed that folder and Backblaze had let me down. Secondly within the Backblaze preferences I could find no way to re-enable this. In fact looking at the list of exclusions I could find no mention of .git whatsoever.

    Which strongly implies that there might be other important folders that aren’t backed up. (Without .git inside a git folder it is no longer a git repository)

    I don’t use backblaze but from the outside it looks like they’re cutting costs by worsening the backups to reduce storage usage.
