I am backing up a remove partition which is 38Gb onto a local partition which is 40Gb. Rsync is complaining that I have run out of disk space on the local partition, and I can tell that this would not happen if local files that are missing in the remote system were deleted BEFORE copying down new files.
I note there is a --delete-after option, but is there a --delete-before option? If not, can I simulate this somehow? This is rsync version 2.6.2 protocol version 28 Thanks, Allistar. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
