You mean like this?
root = /etc
root = /var

Either way, /etc is backed up but /var isn't.


The only way that I could run the command twice is to have two config files
and then run them at different times. Which seems rather wasteful, and, as
they're both owned by $ROOT and need gksudo permission, it makes more sense
to have them both in one file, and utilised at one time. That's what I'm
aiming for.
