rsync - Dec 2003 - sharing bookmarks with rsync

I would like to have my computer at home and my
computer at work to share the same bookmarks. My idea
was to have each of the computers sync with a server's
bookmark file. If the client has a newer file than the
server it would upload it, if the client has an older
file it would download it. I already have the
authentication keys set up and want to do it over ssh.

Would this be one way to accomplish this? Running this
command on the client computers periodically:

rsync -rptvlWe ssh --delete --progress --stats
~/Library/bookmarks.html
user@server.com:~/rsync/bookmarks.html

Thanks

jh

Unison is designed to to exactly what you want.

It can be done with rsync --update.  As an excercise you
should justify to yourself each of the options you 
used in that rsync command to sync a single file.
