Rsync - not copy certain files
I use this


Code:
rsync --progress -r -u /media/andy/MAXTOR_SDB1/Ubuntu_Mate_18.04/* /home/andy/Ubuntu_18.04_Programs/

Is there a way to have it not copy files such as these?

Code:

I found this but can not figure out what it's doing.

Code:
3. Exclude a specific file

 To exclude a specific file, use the relative path of the file in the exclude option as shown below.
 $ rm -rf destination  $ rsync -avz --exclude 'dir1/dir2/file3.txt' source/ destination/

Ubuntu Mate 18.04
