Rsync never looks beyond the > initial exclude, because it matches _everything_. OK, my file looks now as follows: + .kde/share/apps/kabc/ + .kde/share/apps/kbear/ + .kde/share/apps/kopete/ + .kde/share/apps/korganizer/ + .kde/share/apps/quanta/ + .gaim/ + .gaimrc + .OpenOffice/user/config/ + .OpenOffice/user/wordbook/ - * - .* My console output is: building file list ... 3 files to consider .gaimrc wrote 356 bytes read 24 bytes 760.00 bytes/sec total size is 1949 speedup is 5.13 Why was only this one file transferred? I want the other directories to be synchronized, too. I do know that e.g. the OpenOffice wordbook isn't synchronized yet! The tree on both machines is equal (base directory is /home/gregor/).
