removing all exclusion and stopping / uninstalling about asimov

[stevegrunwell]

Good point, this is something that should be better documented.

You can find all of the existing exclusions with the following (props to Heissenberger Laboratory):

$ find ~ -xattrname "com.apple.metadata:com_apple_backup_excludeItem" -type d -prune

From there, you could pipe that list (or some version thereof) to tmutil removeexclusion to make them re-eligible for backups.

For removal, you would either delete the Asimov directory (if you've installed manually), or run brew uninstall asimov (for Homebrew installations).

Thanks so much for the email! All makes sense and listing the excludes in terminal as we speak. Best, Dan.
