Well, note that I didn't say anything about the lib/ directory in that
command; it's just that rsync decided to remove the symlink component
from the path

In the following reproducer, rsync is called as follows:
rsync --verbose --recursive --relative --delete a/./lib/modules b/

Since find is one of the few utilities that actually corrects for symlink loops
you can use it as a workaround. Something like:
cd /source/path ; find -L . -print | rsync ... --copy-links --files-from=- ./

Hi, I have one question regarding handling of symlinks in rsync. If I have
/source directory in which I have 100s of sub directories of directories and
each one has symlink to some directories out side the /source directory
hierarchy. Does rsync follows all those symlinks and syncs the data if I

Thanks Carlos.
... rsync copy symlinks as symlinks
What about the contents pointed by simlinks?
Could you please also elaborate on Only if it's inside source.
Thanks,

If they exist on the destination at the same place the symlink will
point to them, otherwise they'll dangling
Hi,
I need an option to make rsync not replace a symlink on destination,
but for files.
Something like --keep-links.
Let's suppose I have this setup:
- source-dir/source-file
- destination-dir/destination-file (symlink to ../real-destination-file)
- real-destination-file

If you explain more concretely what you were hoping to accomplish by

suggest a better approach.

Hi!
I am using rsync succesfully to maintain my mirrors.
I have one problem, tho.
To improve speeds of my filesystems, I have created a raid 0
of 4 disks, and I place the most heavily copied disks there.
The fs has subdirectories, one for each set of typically .iso files,
such as Mandrakelinux
