Just to be clear. The comma was a mistype. I was stating that you do not want to use a period. If you use a period and you are not in the correct directory, rsync will remove everything within your working directory.

Oh, so you're saying the second argument should be an absolute path?

Yes, that is exactly what I am saying. Although I typically will use a relative path, I always specify a directory name.

OK, that's a great clue -- right on par with "don't rm -rf ." ...

Yep, just one of those foot guns I prefer not to use ;)
