| ''rsync'' is a convenient Linux command that can be used for mirroring a directory hierarchy to another location on the same computer (e.g. a removable disk) or a remote server. It can also be used on a Windows 10 computer where [[other:win10wsl|WSL + Ubuntu is installed]]! But it is probably easier to use the //mirroring// option of [[other:win10_syncback|SyncBack]]. | ''rsync'' is a convenient **Linux** command that can be used for //mirroring// a directory hierarchy to another location on the same computer (e.g. a removable disk) or a remote server.

| | |
| | //Mirroring// means in the ''rsync'' case that we will **only copy new or changed files**. The first //copy// may take some time, but will be much faster afterwards, when only a few files have been created/changed and have to be copied. Or, if a copy is interrupted, the files already copied will not be copied a second time. |

| Warning! It's easy to lose files with ''rsync'' if you use the wrong syntax or options! Be sure to understand the basic options, and use ''%%--%%dry-run'' (simulate what would be done), ''-v'' (verbose) before performing an actual synchronization | **Warning!** It is easy to lose files with ''rsync'' if you use the wrong syntax or options! |
| | |
| | Mirroring //no files// by mistake, to a place where there are files, with the ''%%--%%delete'' option, means that existing files or whole directory hierarchies will be deleted! |
| | |
| | * Be sure to understand the basic options, and use ''%%--%%dry-run'' (simulate what would be done) and ''-v'' (verbose) before performing an actual synchronization |
| | * <wrap em>Having a trailing ''/'' or not behind a directory name makes a difference!</wrap> |

| | === Some rsync options === |
| | |
| | Use ''man rync'' for more details and options |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | -a, --archive archive mode; equals -rlptgoD (no -H,-A,-X) |
| | -r, --recursive recurse into directories |
| | -l, --links copy symlinks as symlinks |
| | -p, --perms preserve permissions |
| | -t, --times preserve modification times |
| | -g, --group preserve group |
| | -o, --owner preserve owner (super-user only) |
| | --devices preserve device files (super-user only) |
| | --specials preserve special files |
| | -D same as --devices --specials |
| | |
| | |
| | -v, --verbose increase verbosity |
| | -z, --compress compress file data during the transfer |
| | -W, --whole-file copy files whole (w/o delta-xfer algorithm) |
| | -C, --cvs-exclude auto-ignore files in the same way CVS does |
| | RCS SCCS CVS CVS.adm RCSLOG cvslog.* tags TAGS .make.state .nse_depinfo *~ #* .#* ,* _$* |
| | *$ *.old *.bak *.BAK *.orig *.rej .del-* *.a *.olb *.o *.obj *.so *.exe *.Z *.elc *.ln |
| | core .svn/ .git/ .hg/ .bzr/ |
| | |
| | --delete delete extraneous files from dest dirs |
| | |
| | -n, --dry-run perform a trial run with no changes made |
| | -c, --checksum skip based on checksum, not mod-time & size |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | === Examples === |
| | |
| | * We have an existing //source// ''/mnt/h/test/'' directory that we would like to //mirror// to another disk or //destination//, as ''/mnt/i/test/''.\\ i.e we want to recursively copy the content of ''test/'' to a ''test/'' directory //somewhere else// |
| | * Show what would be done, but do not do it (yet)\\ <wrap em>Note that we have a trailing ''/'' after the source directory, and NO ''/'' after the destination directory</wrap>\\ ''rsync %%--%%dry-run -avW -C /mnt/h/test/ /mnt/i/test'' |
| | * Note: using ''-C'' makes sure that files and directories considered as temporary will not be copied.\\ Do NOT use the ''-C'' option if you really want to copy all the files! |
| | * Same as above, without the //verbose// mode. Probably nothing will be displayed on the screen\\ ''rsync %%--%%dry-run -aW -C /mnt/h/test/ /mnt/i/test'' |
| | * Actually **copy** the files, without displaying anything\\ ''rsync -aW -C /mnt/h/test/ /mnt/i/test'' |
| | * Actually **mirror** the content of the //source// directory.\\ **Warning! Warning!** the ''%%--%%delete'' option will make sure that files present in the destination directory, but not in the source directory will be deleted! Be careful, make some tests and use the ''%%--%%dry-run'' option before using this\\ ''rsync -aW -C %%--%%delete /mnt/h/test/ /mnt/i/test'' |
