There are reasons why rsync is better than cp. The best one IMO is that rysnc |
| 12 |
will not copy a corrupt file, while cp will. And rsync will tell you about the |
| 13 |
corrupt file. |

You have so many questions about rsync, and different opinions thrown at you. |
| 16 |
Why do you not read "man rsync" and learn about it? This man page is thorough, |
| 17 |
easy to read, and explains it's usage by examples. |
