[Pulp-list] Omitting RPMs in backups

Couple questions if you don't mind?

What is your upstream backups system?  And does it do basic backups of
everything you tell it every night or is it smart enough to only back up
what has changed?

Are your concerns related to data occupied, or backup duration time, or
something else?

Thanks!
