similar to: exclude an excluded file from being deleted by --delete-excluded

On Linux, an rsync command and exclude_file contents of: # cat exclude_file /etc/alsa # rsync -a --delete --delete-excluded --exclude-from=exclude_file /etc server::module properly excludes /etc/alsa but not any file within /etc's directories that is named alsa. On Windows I don't seem to be able to reliably emulate this: C:\Scripts\Backup\rsyncd>type rsyncd_exclude

Hi all, I'm trying to backup a disk using rsync but I need to exclude some folder. I'm using rsync 3.0.4 under cygwin on a winxp machine. The script that I use is: # ---------------------------------------------------------------- # SRCDIR=/cygdrive/d LOGDIR=/cygdrive/f BCKDIR=/cygdrive/f/Backup rsync -auv --progress --delete --delete-excluded --log-file=$LOGDIR/`date +%Y%m%d`.log

Hello, On my windows xp machine, with cygwin, I run rsync to backup important files on another drive (samba share, mapped on h:). It works fine. I currently use the following command line: rsync -rtv --del --delete-excluded --progress --iconv=ISO-8859-1,UTF-8 --partial \ --exclude "/Videos/" \ --exclude "/Ma musique/" \ /cygdrive/d/Documents/ \

Hello I am new to rsync but I started the cwRsyncServer daemon on an Windows 2003 Server machine with this exclude option: exclude = *.obj Debug *~ *.bak *.orig .svn Thumbs.db Copy?of?* Kopie?van?* .* This option I have placed in the global section so I won't have to repeat it on every module. You can see my rsyncd.conf file attached. The problem is now all my files get excluded Now on

Hi, I can't get the exclude in my Rsync statements to work quite right. I have: rsync -avz --delete-after --exclude-from=/cygdrive/d/exclude.job 10.1.1.11::ddrive /cygdrive/d/backup The exclude file contains: - /bin - /endofdaybin I want the directories above to be excluded from the job completely, however, they still seem to be copied. Do I have a problem with either the exclude or

I am not 100% sure I am interpreting this correctly but I think you are complaining that the file was being deleted in the first command? If so, instead of -F try --include='*/' --exclude='*'. Otherwise, maybe you want a second -F? On 3/6/23 16:04, Heiko Schlittermann via rsync wrote: > Hello, > > given are 2 directories: > > a > ??? a-file >

Hello, given are 2 directories: a ??? a-file ??? .rsync-filter b ??? a-file I'd like to sync a/ -> b/, but I'd like to *exclude* all files. But I do not want to delete the excluded files. (The real scenario is a way more complex, the above is my reproducer.) and the following rsync command: `rsync -F --del a/ b/` Note, there is *no* `--delete-excluded`: $

Hi there, we have an odd problem, which maybe how rsync is intended to work, but I think not: On server side, we run rsync in daemon mode with a share [foo] that has a serverside path of /foo. On client side, we invoke rsync -zavuSH --delete server::foo/ /foo. The rsync daemon uses an exclusion list. The problem is, the client rsync deletes clientside whatever is in the exclusionlist.

I'm having troubles with getting rsync 2.5.5 (CYGWIN version) to include/exclude files they way I expect it to. I have mulled over the list postings and man pages regarding this and I am either missing something or ... well I don' know. I have a drive with 12 folders in the root however, I only want to rsync 5 of them (the ones marked with an *) and in those 4 I want to exclude certain

Hi, I have problem with --compare-dest option. I have backup that copies all files on WINDOWS server to another computer each Monday. On rest of weekdays I want to compare files between production data and once backuped on Monday and copy ONLY changed/new files to third location. I use syntax: rsync -av --delete-excluded --exclude-from=/cygdrive/d/bin/backup/excludes.txt

Hello I'm looking for a way to exclude and delete some items but not delete other items. Use case: I'm on Windows where there are folders like recycle.bin and system volume information on every drive. I can exclude them while backing up my data drive. But I now also have other data that is excluded and that I want to delete from my existing backup. However if I use --delete-excluded then

I am using the following command and the excluded directory /usr/share/doc/ still appears with all it's contents in the backup directory when it's contents should be deleted. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? rsync --delete --delete-excluded -a -R --exclude="/proc/*" --exclude="/dev/*" --exclude="/usr/share/doc/*" --exclude="/backup*"

I have an rsync daemon running on a Windows box. It has a module called "temp" that allows users to write to a specific directory. My rsync.conf looks like: use chroot = false strict modes = false max connections = 3 hosts allow = 192.168.1.7 lock file = rsyncd.lock log file = rsyncd.log pid file = rsyncd.pid timeout = 600 refuse options = h I c a delete [temp] comment = WSS

Hi While trying to back up my homedir, i found what looks like a bug: from /home, i do: rsync -CWavP --delete --delete-excluded \ --exclude=".phoenix/default/*/Cache/" \ --exclude-from=rsync-excludes \ myusername/ targetserver:/backup/myusername/ rsync-excludes contains (without [] lines): [start] #comment **.xvpics** *.swp [end] This works

I am using rsync in a situation where the amount of bwlimit I want to use changes depending on the time of day. for example, I start rsync at 2am when no-one else is using the system, so I want it to use 100k/sec. At 9am, it is still running, but as the bandwidth of the link it's using now needs to be shared with other users, I would like rsync to only use 10k/sec. Any way of doing this

Your setup counts as talking directly to an rsync daemon; rsync doesn't care that the connection goes through ssh

rsync is deleting all the files that match my exclude strings, but I don't want this to happen and I am not using the --delete-excluded option. Is this a known problem/feature? The files it is deleting DO still exist on the sending server. Here is the command I'm using: rsync -avzul --delete blue1-eth1::mod1 /home/.sites and it is version 2.5.5-C1 Thanks, -e.l.
