Q: final cut pro x I am seeing very long file pathnames when zipping the "movies" folder.

I am watching the log file while I am zipping the "Movies" folder. In the file are some pathnames more than 200 characters long a typical line  is: "adding: movies/FinalCut.fcpbundle/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache/.fcpcache" for about 300 characters and then the pathname of the file being backed up. ".fcpbundle" is an alias but why so many of them? I am concerned because I am trying to back my data before going to El Capitan. This is a solution looking for a problem because I am not having trouble using FCPX. I'm new to OSX (I ran XP for about 800 years). 8^0). Thanks for the info. I promise to get a Time Machine.

Mac mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
