Your two choices are (1) to use --link-dest into a new directory every day (which shares most of the data using hard-links, but does require 7 days worth of inodes for the whole hierarchy, which may be undesireable) or (2) use --backup and --backup-dir into a new directory every day to put just the changed/deleted files into that backup hierarchy. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
