how to sync remote folders without overwriting
Hi,
I need to sync 2 remote folders so i setup with rsync which is working very fine. But, there comes another requirement to maintain multiple versions of files on destination (NOT to overwrite the destination file). If there is difference between source file and destination file, it must create new file on destination (e.g., file.1 , file.2 etc.) but not overwrite the existing one. Is it possible with rsync? or do i need to go for any other solution? Pls advise me. TIA Prvn |

rsync will not do what you need. The destination will be a copy of the source. No duplications or new filenames allowed. rsync will delete as well as copy and update files.
