I'd like to simple transfer a list of files with no attempt to build up huge
file lists. These files will be scattered around a directory containing
around 500,000 files in total. can I simply pass --include-file pointing to
the list of files to transfer or is something more involved? The problem is
that my source file list will be complete filenames, ie /home/aaa/dir1/file
and /home/aaa/dir2/file2 but the destination rsync server has a root aaa for
/home/aaa.
The trick is that the files are in a whole bunch of different directories,
and I can't seem to wrangle it to work with something like
rsync --include-from=filelist dest.com::aaa
