First let me clarify the directory structure:
/foo
/test
/dir1
But now I'm lost again. What is the "root of the transfer" of this:
rsync -av /foo/test/ serv2:/foo/
?
My understanding was that the exclude is relative to the destination path, so:
rsync -av --exclude=/foo/test/dir1/ /foo/test/ serv2:/foo/
would actually exclude /foo/foo/test/dir1/ (non-existant)
