I don't think you can use + in the exclude list.  Since you want to
back up two specific trees from the server, I would recommend using
two separate backup definitions.

In /var/backup/abigail_www/dirvish/default.conf

rsync-client: sudo rsync
client: dirvish@172.20.86.111
tree: /var/www

and in /var/backup/abigail_mlmmj/dirvish/default.conf

rsync-client: sudo rsync
client: dirvish@172.20.86.111
tree: /etc/mlmmj

In /etc/dirvish/master.conf


bank:
	/var/backup
index:	text

exclude:
        *~

Runall:
        abigail_www
        abigail_mlmmj

image-default: %Y%m%d
expire-default: +9 days
rsh: ssh -o "BatchMode yes" -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no"

Remember to initialize both backups

dirvish --vault abigail_www --init
dirvish --vault abigail_mlmmj --init
