 ======Rsync======
 These are my rsync notes.  I also used to use rsnapshot, however I was unhappy with the performance of this application and moved to restic.  The original rsnapshot notes have been rolled up and moved to the bottom of this page.

-====An Important Notes====
+====Main rsync command usage summary====
 A trailing slash (/) at the end of the first argument in the rsync command: ''rsync -a dir1/ dir2'', mean “the contents of dir1”. The alternative, without the trailing slash, would place dir1, including the directory, within dir2. This would create a hierarchy that looks like: ~/dir2/dir1/[files]

   *''--delete'' deletes files on the destination where they are not on the source.  **//Use with care!//**
   *''-n'' is for dry run, no changes are made, but proposed output is seen

 Always double-check your arguments before executing an rsync command. Rsync provides a method for doing this by passing the ''-n'' or ''%%-–%%dry-run'' options. The -v flag (for verbose) is also necessary to get the appropriate output:
