Good to add an example, but please use something more familiar to users (.pdf rather than .o). Not everybody is a developer.
The default interpretation for the paths to extract is `pp:` which is a literal | ||
path-prefix match. If you want to use e.g. a wildcard, you must select a different | ||
pattern style such as `sh:` or `fm:`. See :ref:`borg_patterns` for more information. |
