Hello! I was wondering wether or not this would be a viable option to add to rsync:
--delete-hide Instead of deleting the file, rsync would rename the file using leading “.” and trailing “.deleted-{timestamp}”. rsync -rv --delete-hide /src/ /dst/ For example if /src/readme.txt had already been rsynced to /dst/readme.txt and then later was deleted from /src, rsync would - instead of deleting /dst/readme.txt - rename /dst/readme.txt to /dst/.readme.txt.deleted-20140604120445.
