Backup is a little picky when it comes to checking dates: it also checks
the diretor{y|ies} above the files you enter at the commandline. This
may lead to backing up more files than you intend, if the condition
is met by any directory containing the files (or maybe only the
directory containing the files and not any higher level?).
