When creating an incremental backup, files specified in include-files are always added to the backup, even if they did not change. It is not recommended to specify big, rarely changing files (or wildcards that match such files) directly in the include-files option if incremental backup is used. Such files should be inserted into a directory and that directory should be archived instead. This is a bug/feature of tar.
