Question about backup config

[d1egoaz]

I'm just wondering why after you define backup rules in https://github.com/TheBB/dotfiles/blob/master/emacs/spacemacs.el#L127:

   ;; Backups
   backup-directory-alist `((".*" . ,temporary-file-directory))
   auto-save-file-name-transforms `((".*" ,temporary-file-directory t))
   backup-by-copying t
   delete-old-versions t
   kept-new-versions 6
   kept-old-versions 2

you disable backups after that in:
https://github.com/TheBB/dotfiles/blob/master/emacs/spacemacs.el#L134

make-backup-files nil

btw, thanks for sharing your config and great video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKF41ivkBb0

Just stuck there from an older version I suppose.
