Hello list,
I try to keep a list of directories/files on windows in sync with the ones
on a remote machine. Basically syncing works fine, however I am
stuck/confused with the various possiblities using include/exclude
options. Your help is very much appreciated. Here's the scenario:
Local source dir: /cygdrive (seems to be required or else the cygwin-HOME
is set)
Remote destination dir: ~/data
Local file tree to be synced, that may vary each time rsync is run:
C:\test1\a1\
b1\
c1\
C:\test2\a2\
b2\
So I created a file "files.txt" containing:
C/test1
C/test2
And then I call rsync:
$ rsync -avvr --temp-dir=temp --delete -e ssh --stats
--files-from=files.inc /cygdrive [EMAIL PROTECTED]:data
This copies all the directories just fine to the remote machine. However,
when I run rsync wiht a different file tree to be synced, say:
C:\test1\a1\
b1\
c1\
C:\test3\a3\
b3\
The directory "~data/C/test2" does not get deleted on the remote side. How
can I achieve this? How do I have to set the options so that any
directory/file on the remote side that is not explicitly listed as include
path gets deleted?
Thanks VERY much for any help on this! Dave.
