rear savelayout
creates disklayout.conf with this:Separate the example of AUTOEXCLUDE_PATH handling from the treatment of /tmp. /tmp is a bad example, because it is handled specially by the default setting of another config variable (BACKUP_PROG_EXCLUDE). Use /mnt as an example for AUTOEXCLUDE_PATH instead and make clear that AUTOEXCLUDE_PATH=( /tmp ) does not exclude files under /tmp from the backup and an independent setting is used for that purpose.
