What should be backed up?

What should be backed up?

    cucumber% sudo du -hcs *
    8.2G    fisheye
    7.1M    l10n
    30G     nexus
    22M     pwm
    15G     releases
    1.6G    subversion
    54G     total
    cucumber% 

I'm planning on backing up home directories, what else in /srv and maybe /var
needs to be backed up?

Releases is already mirrored, yes?

Nexus...I'm honestly not sure what to do there.

You can skip /srv/nexus/combined and /srv/nexus/java.net-m2 and that
should save about 30GB.

/srv/fisheye/FISHEYE_INST/cache and
/srv/fisheye/FISHEYE_INST/var/cache can be also excluded from the
backup, and that'll save another 8GB or so.

/srv/releases is worth backing up, I think. Since cucumber is the
master of the mirrors, if something bad happens to it, they might
propagate to mirrors before we notice.
