Let's say we have the following repart definitions files root.conf and home.conf: ``` [Partition] Type=root CopyFiles=/ ``` ``` [Partition] Type=home CopyFiles=/home ``` Currently, we'd end up copying /home to both the root partition and the home partition. To prevent this from happening, let's adopt a new policy when copying files for a partition: We won't copy any files/directories that appear in the CopyFiles= list of another partition, unless that directory explicitly appears in our own CopyFiles= list. This way, we prevent copying /home twice into the root and home partition, but should a user really want that behavior, they can have it by adding /home to the CopyFIles= list of the root partition as well.
