rsync - Sep 2008 - using rsync to transfer only files and not sub-directories

Hi All,

I am trying to rsync contents of a directory while making sure that
"only"
files under that directory are synched and "not" the contents of any
sub-directory under that dir.

I know that I will have to use the include/exclude option but not sure how.
Can some please help?

Thanks

The following will copy the subdirectories themselves but not their
contents:

rsync -d SRC/ DEST/

If you don't want the subdirectories at all, do this:

rsync -d --exclude='*/' SRC/ DEST/
