1 Hi,
2
3 I have two problems with rsync
4
5 1st) if I give both commandline options -u and -c
6 it looks as if a file which is more recent but different
7 on the destination is not updated, i.e. -u overrules -c
8 Is that true?
9
10 2nd) There is a symlink A on <SourceDir> which refers to a directory
11 On the other hand, A is the name of a (real) subdirectory of
12 <DestDir>
13
14 Now doing
15 rsync -auHz --delete --exclude=/A <SourceDir>/ <DestDir>/
16 does remove A on <DestDir> - why ?
17
18 I'm using rsync-3.0.7 .
19
20 Many thanks for a hint,
21 Helmut.
