My data file - MyData.gnucash is in the same directory as what I call the
"working" files -- the MyData.gnucash.<timestamp>.gnucash and the
MyData.gnucash.<timestamp>.log files.

Is there some way that these working files can be created in a separate
directory?

I am backing up the GnuCash data directory, but in reality, all I really
need to backup is my GnuCash file - all of these working files are just
taking up space on the backup media.

What is your OS and what script controlling the backup?

Is there a way that these working files can be created in a separate directory? and is there a way these working files could be found and moved to a separate directory prior to the backup? are different questions.

PS -- ideally the shell script that does the move should first check for the existence of the "to" directory and if not found, create it. Then works first time run.
