Hey #Emacs gurus! How can I make TRAMP use custom backup autosave dir on the server itself and not to save the files locally to my computer? Currently I have the below config, but it keeps saving locally.

(setq auto-save-file-name-transforms '(("." "~/.saves/" t))
backup-directory-alist '(("." . "~/.saves/"))
tramp-backup-directory-alist '(("." . "~/.saves/"))
tramp-auto-save-directory "~/.saves/")

(setq backup-by-copying t)

@circfruit ooh. I want to know this too, except with deletes...
