Hi rsync list!
I have a problem with the exclude-from and include-from options.
I want sync all jpeg files to an external server - exclude HK and texts
folders and jpg inside this folders.
My folder structure are:
/products/ANYNAME/pictures/EU
/products/ANYNAME/pictures/HK
/products/ANYNAME/texts
...
my include-from file:
*/
*.JPG
*.jpg
my exclude-from file:
*/HK/
*/texts
*
my rsync command:
rsync -rvz -W --force --size-only --delete --delete-excluded
--include-from=/etc/rsyncfiles.txt --exclude-from=/etc/rsyncexcludes.txt
-e 'ssh -C -p 1000' '/srv/fileserver/products/current product range'
IP:/var/products
Problem 1) all jpeg are copied to the external server - also the jpegs
from HK folders. But I only want jpegs from the EU and other folders.
Problem 2) an empty texts folder was created on the external server -
but I don't want this.
Is there any solution for my 2 problems? I invest now over 5 hours to
google, rtfm and "try and error" - but I think im too stupid to find the
right way.
Many many thanks!
