And I want it to arrive on the remote machine at:
/other/foreign/directory/file.zip
But only /other exists, is there any way to have rsync create the
intermediate directories?
Solution #1 (uses -R):
cd /scratch-dir
mkdir foreign
ln -s /some/local/path foreign/directory
rsync -avR --no-implied-dirs foreign/directory/file.zip host:/other
rm -rf foreign
That causes rsync to duplicate the relative path dirs as dirs instead of
making the last one a symlink.
Solution #2 (sends the dirs separately):
cd /scratch-dir
mkdir -p foreign/directory
rsync -av foreign host:/other
rsync -av /some/local/path/file.zip host:/other/foreign/directory
rm -rf foreign
Solution #3 (makes the dirs without using rsync):
ssh host mkdir -p /other/foreign/directory
rsync -av /some/local/path/file.zip host:/other/foreign/directory

thanks wayne, i've been doing solution #3 all along, guess i'll stick
with it. thanks!
