Subject: Re: rsync help the gramma
I use -avczPW for switches. very rarely do I automate a delete and it
is always AFTER a full copy. If you put a / in the wrong place you can
nuke your whole set of backups. So beware... other than that rsync IS
the way to backup. It is so featureful and once you set up your style
makes it pretty brainless to use. Rsync get sym links, hard links, and
permissions, mod dates, the whole schbang. The wonderful thing too
about rsync is if it gets interrupted it doesn't corrupt your whole
backup. So when you restart it it adjusts itself for source and
destination and then just restarts the backup from the last completed
file.
