print only first level directory name when copying files
Hello, I am copying /mnt/foo to /mnt/bar/ rsync --info=name1,del2 -rl /mnt/foo /mnt/bar/ /mnt/foo contains deep directory structure, ie: /mnt/foo/aaa/ /mnt/foo/aaa/somestuff/ /mnt/foo/aaa/somestuff/file1 /mnt/foo/bbb/ /mnt/foo/bbb/someotherstuff/ /mnt/foo/bbb/someotherstuff/file2 I am not interested in details which individual files were copied, just the main directory. Is it somehow possible for rsync to only report the first level directory? ie, to have output like this when copying: /mnt/foo/aaa/ /mnt/foo/bbb/ thanks,
find /mnt/foo/* -maxdepth 0 -print -exec rsync -an `realpath {}`
/mnt/bar/ \;
(realpath eliminates the trailing slashes)

If the latter, filtering the output with grep might work -- something like this (untested): rsync --info=name1,del2 -rl /mnt/foo /mnt/bar/ | egrep '^/.*/.*/.*/$'
