Hello, I am mirroring a local application onto a remote server:
mirror -v -n -L -R -x \.txt -x \.htaccess -X \.git The -n option doesn't seem to work: -n, --only-newer download only newer files However, even though locally nothing has changed, the same files are being uploaded again (wasting time and bandwidth and causing problems on the server because each file is being deleted before being re-uploaded): Removing old file `cron.php' Transferring file `cron.php' Removing old file `index.php' Transferring file `index.php' Removing old file `install.php' Transferring file `install.php' etc. etc. Also, neither: -X \.git nor -X \.git* nor -X .git works. man page: -X GP, --exclude-glob GP exclude matching files GP is a glob pattern, e.g. `*.zip'. I wanted to be clever and use a GP to exclude .git and .gitignore, but apparently only -x .git works. The main problem is that mirror -n does not work as expected.
