Subject: BTRFS send: exclude directories

Hi,

I have been experimenting with btrfs send/receive for incremental backups, but 
could not figure out how to exclude certain directories from 
subvolumes/snapshots. For example, I want to backup my data in home, but I am 
not interested in backing up hidden directories like .cache too. 
Is it currently possible to achieve something like that?

Thanks for the great work!
