Print .tarignore Backup Shell Script

[dannymichel]

I'm using a .tarignore script to archive and backup files and folders and upload them via rclone.
I use a .tarignore fole to ignore directory patterns during the backup \
It's gone well so far, but since it uses patters rather than explicitly ignoring certain directories, i'd like an output somewhere showing which folders the .tarignore found and excluded during the backup. \

I think this is a tar question rather than an rclone question.

I'd try the -v flag and add more vs until you get the output you want.

   -v, --verbose
          Verbosely list files processed.  Each instance of this option on
          the command line increases the verbosity level by one.  The max‐
          imum  verbosity  level  is  3.  For a detailed discussion of how
          various verbosity levels affect tar's output,  please  refer  to
          GNU Tar Manual, subsection 2.5.1 "The --verbose Option".
