Preserving symbolic links on the destination machine
Hi there,
I'm trying to keep my laptop up-to-date with my desktop. For various
reasons I have a number of directories which are soft-linked to
directories on different machines on the network to which my desktop is
connected. When I sync to my laptop with a command like
rsync -vazu -e ssh ~/* --delete <destination> -L --copy-unsafe-links
it does what I want, which is to copy the symbolically linked
directories on the desktop to actual directories on the laptop. However,
when I copy them back to the desktop using just
rsync -vazu,
rsync removes the symbolic link...
