In the manpage, there is a section entitled INCLUDE/EXCLUDE PATTERN
RULES that explains this (quoting):
- if the pattern ends with a / then it will only match a directory,
not a file, link, or device.
So, the option you want is:
--exclude=binary/
See the manpage for why you don't need the '*'s (unless "binary" is only
a part of the filename, e.g. "binarydir" or "2nd-binary" would require
the use of wildcards to block them all with one exclude):
