rsync most recently modified/created files first?

Is it possible for rsync to order the files it sends by create/modify time so that it sends the more recent files first? Many thanks in advance, Chris -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/rsync-most-recently-modified-created-files-first--tp26911069p26911069.html Sent from the

preventing multiple rsync processes backing up same file with cron backup

If I have an rsync cron job that runs say every 15 minutes, what happens if there is a file that process 1 has started to copy across, but hasn't finished before the next process starts? Does rsync ignore this partially copied file, or does it try to copy it across again in the second cron job?
