 * I adopted a site from another developer. I used your clone/migrate feature to
   copy his site to mine and work on the staging site while the other stays live.
 * I’ve experienced a strange issue when doing backups. The first few times I did
   a backup, it was backing up about 7 uploads folders, then the following times
   it seemed there were more and more. The backup I just did yesterday gave me “**
   72**” uploads folders. Would you have any idea why it’s creating so many uploads
   folder?
 * I’ve use your plugin on about 6 other sites, and none of them backup more than
   one uploads folder.
