got the solution for it. just FYI you don't need to put the full path just
--exclude=/some/dir/file

Subject: --exclude not working?
Hello,
am using the following flags for my rsync line
rsync --exclude=/path/to/a/file -av /some/dir /some/other/dir
and every time it sync the file is copied, any idea why? or am using the wrong
expression?
