Hi,
I am trying to use rsync for incremental backup and I am facing some issues. I
would like to ask your help to understand what is going on and have the proper
command line.
1) my goal is
I the following folders:
./dest:
file3.txt
./orig:
file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt
And I would like to have as incremental backup
./dest:
backup file1.txt file2.txt file3.txt
./dest/backup:file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt
./orig:
file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt
However, I got the following. Also, if I repeat the command, the files are
deleted from /dest.
./dest:
backup file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt file3.txt
./dest/backup:
./orig:
file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt
2) simulation that I did
[billqap1:/tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests]: rsync --backup --backup-dir=backup -avi
--compare-dest=../dest /tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests/orig/
/tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests/dest/
sending incremental file list
>f+++++++++ file1.txt
>f+++++++++ file10.txt
>f+++++++++ file2.txt
>f+++++++++ file20.txt
sent 283 bytes received 92 bytes 750.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0 speedup is 0.00
[billqap1:/tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests]: ls -R
backup-fullincremental.sh backup-fullincremental2.sh dest
orig
./dest:
backup file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt file3.txt
./dest/backup:
./orig:
file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt
[billqap1:/tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests]: rsync --backup --backup-dir=backup -avi
--compare-dest=../dest /tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests/orig/
/tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests/dest/
sending incremental file list
sent 123 bytes received 12 bytes 270.00 bytes/sec

[billqap1:/tmp/edbcdsj/rsynctests]: ls -R
backup-fullincremental.sh backup-fullincremental2.sh dest
orig
./dest:
backup file3.txt
./dest/backup:
./orig:
file1.txt file10.txt file2.txt file20.txt

Thanks,
