Hello All, I've been googling a lot but I can't find any suitable solution or advice, so I'm asking you. I'm trying do find a way to sync two distant folders containing symlinks pointing to files outside the synced folders BUT with different target names.
Here is an example: ./dir1: (source) file --> ../data/file ./dir2: (destination) file --> ../share/other_file The goal would be to update 'share/other_file' with the contents of 'data/file', without modifying the existing 'dir2/file' symlink. I couldn't find any combination of option (--copy-unsafe-links, -l, -L, etc.): either 'dir2/file' symlink is deleted and replaced with a real file, or 'dir2/file' is replaced by a symlink pointing to '../data/file'... that doesn't exist in destination tree. I would really appreciate if anyone had any idea to solve this case. Thanks, Greg (Paris) -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
