Thanks for the info. I actually did not specify my configuration right so that it is where I was going wrong. However, I'm still not able to only rsync /Test2.
My root directory is: /Rootdir And then subdirectories of /Rootdir are: /Test1 /Test2 /Test3 To get only /Test2, I tried the following in the include-only file: + Rootdir/Test2/ - /* This syncs nothing and gives me: excluding directory Rootdir because of pattern /*.
