rsync specific files

2000-11-10 Thread Joe D'Andrea
A reality-check question, as I continue plundering the documentation vaults. :-) I want to rsync a list of files (relative paths), not entire directory trees. I know I can pass the list on the command line like so: cd /parent/dir rsync -v -R relative/path/to/file.ext host:/parent/dir I want t

While a solution using rsync would be ideal, if you don't have a huge number of files  or lots of huge files which meet this special case, it probably wouldn't be prohibitively difficult to write your own special case script. It could be set to ignore all files that rsync will handle normally (but

I brought this up on the list years ago and was told it's a feature, not a bug. Even if some other GNU or Linux commands have this "feature", it still violates the principle of least surprise. It's also pretty hard to discover because a null argument is literally invisible.

ry familiar with fuzzy searching, but using that in places like /var seems odd. One of the constant refrains on this list is that using checksums is almost never a good idea.
