I'm not sure how many Windows users there are in this group, but I thought I'd give a quick update...
I managed to get rsync on Windows by installing cwRsync. I installed the free version using the instructions here - http://www.rsync.net/resources/howto/windows_rsync.html That didn't work, but after Googling I found an answer to a similar question. It had to do with adding the path to the environmental variables so rsync could be accessed from all folders: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20493309/cwrsync-in-windows-not-being-recognised Unfortunately I am still getting errors with I do vagrant up. I really don't understand what the problem is. I know there were issues with previous versions of Vagrant, but I am on the latest one (v1.5.4) Here are the error messages: ==> default: Rsyncing folder: /cygdrive/c/Users/IanAnderson/Documents/Sites/Vagrants/Primary-Vagrant/vagrant-local/sites /stable.wordpress.vagrant/ => /var/www/stable.wordpress.vagrant ==> default: - Exclude: [".vagrant/", ".git/"] There was an error when attempting to rsync a synced folder.
