Just change your script that runs rsync to do a rm /tmp/mylogs/myfile
or cp /dev/null /tmp/mylogs/myfile prior to the transfer.  Rsync always
appends.

Overwrite the rsync log-file in rsync3.0.5 ??

[Jignesh Shah]

Hi, Could any one please let me know if there is anyway to overwrite the
log-file if it already exists. I want /tmp/mylogs/myfile file to be
overwritten each time below command executes.

rsync -av -ii file-format='MyLogs: %i %f %l %o %b'
--log-file='/tmp/mylogs/myfile'

Thanks,
Jignesh
