If you have /path/to/a/fed.txt rsync -a /path/to/a /path/to/b results in /path/to/b/a/fed.txt rsync -a /path/to/a/ /path/to/b results in /path/to/b/fed.txt _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
