It does this by sending just the\ndifferences in the files across the link, without requiring that both\nsets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand.\nAt first glance this may seem impossible because the calculation of\ndiffs between two files normally requires local access to both\nfiles. \n\nA technical report describing the rsync algorithm is included with\nthis package. \n\n\nUSAGE\n-----\n\nBasically you use rsync just like rcp, but rsync has many additional options.\n\nHere is a brief description of rsync usage:\n\nUsage: rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... [USER@]HOST:DEST\n  or   rsync [OPTION]... [USER@]HOST:SRC DEST\n  or   rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... DEST\n  or   rsync [OPTION]... [USER@]HOST::SRC [DEST]\n  or   rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... [USER@]HOST::DEST\n  or   rsync [OPTION]... rsync://[USER@]HOST[:PORT]/SRC [DEST]\nSRC on single-colon remote HOST will be expanded by remote shell\nSRC on server remote HOST may contain shell wildcards or multiple\n  sources separated by space as long as they have same top-level\n\nOptions\n -v, --verbose               increase verbosity\n -q, --quiet                 decrease verbosity\n -c, --checksum              always checksum\n -a, --archive               archive mode\n -r, --recursive             recurse into directories\n -R, --relative              use relative path names\n -b, --backup                make backups (default ~ suffix)\n     --suffix=SUFFIX         override backup suffix\n -u, --update                update only (don't overwrite newer files)\n -l, --links                 preserve soft links\n -L, --copy-links            treat soft links like regular files\n     --copy-unsafe-links     copy links outside the source tree\n     --safe-links            ignore links outside the destination tree\n -H, --hard-links            preserve hard links\n -p, --perms                 preserve permissions\n -o, --owner                 preserve owner (root only)\n -g, --group                 preserve group\n -D, --devices               preserve devices (root only)\n -t, --times                 preserve times\n -S, --sparse                handle sparse files efficiently\n -n, --dry-run               show what would have been transferred\n -W, --whole-file            copy whole files, no incremental checks\n -x, --one-file-system       don't cross filesystem boundaries\n -B, --block-size=SIZE       checksum blocking size (default 700)\n -e, --rsh=COMMAND           specify rsh replacement\n     --rsync-path=PATH       specify path to rsync on the remote machine\n -C, --cvs-exclude           auto ignore files in the same way CVS does\n     --delete                delete files that don't exist on the sending side\n     --delete-excluded       also delete excluded files on the receiving side\n     --partial               keep partially transferred files\n     --force                 force deletion of directories even if not empty\n     --numeric-ids           don't map uid/gid values by user/group name\n     --timeout=TIME          set IO timeout in seconds\n -I, --ignore-times          don't exclude files that match length and time\n     --size-only             only use file size when determining if a file should be transferred\n -T  --temp-dir=DIR          create temporary files in directory DIR\n     --compare-dest=DIR      also compare destination files relative to DIR\n -z, --compress              compress file data\n     --exclude=PATTERN       exclude files matching PATTERN\n     --exclude-from=FILE     exclude patterns listed in FILE\n     --include=PATTERN       don't exclude files matching PATTERN\n     --include-from=FILE     don't exclude patterns listed in FILE\n     --version               print version number\n     --daemon                run as a rsync daemon\n     --config=FILE           specify alternate rsyncd.conf file\n     --port=PORT             specify alternate rsyncd port number\n     --stats                 give some file transfer stats\n     --progress              show progress during transfer\n     --log-format=FORMAT     log file transfers using specified format\n     --password-file=FILE    get password from FILE\n -h, --help                  show this help screen\n\n\n\nSETUP\n-----\n\nRsync normally uses rsh or ssh for communication.  It does not need to\nbe setuid and requires no special privileges for installation.  You\nmust, however, have a working rsh or ssh system. Using ssh is\nrecommended for its security features.\n\nAlternatively, rsync can run in `daemon' mode, listening on a socket.\nThis is generally used for public file distribution, although\nauthentication and access control are available.\n\nTo install rsync, first run the \"configure\" script. This will create a\nMakefile and config.h appropriate for your system. Then type\n\"make\". \n\nNote that on some systems you will have to force configure not to use\ngcc because gcc may not support some features (such as 64 bit file\noffsets) that your system may support. Set the environment variable CC\nto the name of your native compiler before running configure in this\ncase. \n\nOnce built put a copy of rsync in your search path on the local and\nremote systems (or use \"make install\"). That's it!\n\nRSYNC SERVERS\n-------------\n\nrsync can also talk to \"rsync servers\" which can provide anonymous or\nauthenticated rsync. See the rsyncd.conf(5) man page for details on how\nto setup a rsync server. See the rsync(1) man page for info on how to\nconnect to a rsync server.\n\n\nMAILING LIST\n------------\n\nThere is a mailing list for the discussion of rsync and its\napplications. It is open to anyone to join. I will announce new\nversions on this list. \n\nTo join the mailing list see the web page at http://lists.samba.org/\n\nTo send mail to everyone on the list send it to rsync@samba.org\n\n\nBUG REPORTS\n-----------\n\nIf you have web access then please look at\nhttp://rsync.samba.org/rsync/ \n\nThis will give you access to the bug tracking system used by the\ndevelopers of rsync and will allow you to look at other bug reports or\nsubmit a new bug report.\n\nIf you don't have web access then mail bug reports to rsync@samba.org.\n\n\nCVS TREE\n--------\n\nIf you want to get the very latest version of rsync direct from the\nsource code repository then you can use anonymous cvs. You will need a\nrecent version of cvs then use the following commands:\n\n\tcvs -d :pserver:cvs@pserver.samba.org:/cvsroot login\n\tPassword: cvs\n\n\tcvs -d :pserver:cvs@pserver.samba.org:/cvsroot co rsync\n\nLook at the cvs documentation, or http://samba.org/cvs.html, for more\ndetails.\n\n\nCOPYRIGHT\n---------\n\nrsync was originally written by Andrew Tridgell and has been improved\nby many developers around the world.  rsync may be used, modified and\nredistributed only under the terms of the GNU General Public License,\nfound in the file COPYING in this distribution, or at \n\n  http://www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl.html\n\n\nAVAILABILITY\n------------\n\nThe main web site for rsync is http://rsync.samba.org/\nThe main ftp site is ftp://rsync.samba.org/pub/rsync/\nThis is also available as rsync://rsync.samba.org/rsyncftp/\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcmsj%2Frsync","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcmsj%2Frsync","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcmsj%2Frsync/lists"}
