Bacula does an MD5 sum on the "active" part of a fileset, which means
that even an immaterial change such as a space is important. If the MD5
sum changes, Bacula will do a Full backup unless the Ignore Fileset
Changes is set.

May not be relevant that this is Windows, but ... in the docs it says
that if a change is made to a FileSet, the next backup will be a full
backup.
However, I am trying to tune a windows fileset, and two things are happening:
1. If I change the FileSet then run a backup, it is an incremental backup,
Are you just changing things inside Options clauses? I think it only notices
changes to the "File = ..." lines.
2. The incremental backup includes files that are excluded by the
FileSet, even though an estimate command does _not_ show those files.
That's unexpected. Is there a large difference between the number of files?
